42:1.3 There is [[innate]] in [[matter]] and present in [[universal]] [[space]] a [[form]] of [[energy]] [[Unknown|not known]] on [[Urantia]]. When this [[discovery]] is finally made, then will [[physicists]] feel that they have solved, almost at least, the [[mystery]] of [[matter]]. And so will they have approached one step nearer the [[Creator]]; so will they have mastered one more [[phase]] of the [[divine]] [[technique]]; but in no sense will they have found [[God]], neither will they have [[established]] the [[existence]] of [[matter]] or the operation of [[natural law]]s apart from the [[cosmic]] [[technique]] of [[Paradise]] and the [[motivating]] [[purpose]] of the [[Universal Father]].

42:1.5 The [[creation]] of [[energy]] and the [[bestowal]] of life are the [[prerogatives]] of the [[Universal Father]] and his [[associate]] [[Supreme Creators|Creator]] [[personalities]].

42:1.6 [[Energy]] [[proceeds]] from [[Paradise]], [[Design|fashioned]] after the [[divine]] [[Cosmos|order]]. [[Energy]]— [[pure]] energy—partakes of the [[nature]] of the [[divine]] [[organization]]; it is fashioned after the similitude of the [[three Gods]] [[embraced]] in [[one]], as they [[function]] at the [[headquarters]] of the [[universe of universes]]. And all [[force]] is [[circuited]] in [[Paradise]], comes from the [[Paradise]] [[Presences]] and returns thereto, and is in [[essence]] a [[manifestation]] of the [[I AM|uncaused Cause]]—the [[Universal Father]]; and without the Father would not anything [[exist]] that does exist.

If this were not true, then [[evidence]] of [[energy]] depletion at some point would sooner or later [[appear]]. All [[laws]], [[organizations]], [[administration]], and the [[testimony]] of [[universe]] [[explorers]]—[[everything]] points to the [[existence]] of an [[infinite]] [[God]] but, as yet, a [[finite]] [[universe]], a [[circularity]] of endless [[existence]], well-nigh limitless but, nevertheless, [[finite]] in [[contrast]] with [[infinity]].

There are two sorts of these space rays: one attendant upon the [[birth]] of [[atoms]] and the other indicative of atomic disruption.

When [[electrons]] pass from higher to lower [[energy]] levels of [[orbital]] [[revolution]], [[quanta]] are always given off.

==42:11. UNIVERSE MECHANISMS==  

42:11.1 In the [[evaluation]] and [[recognition]] of [[mind]] it should be [[remembered]] that the [[universe]] is neither [[mechanical]] nor [[magical]]; it is a [[creation]] of [[mind]] and a [[mechanism]] of [[law]]. But while in [[practical]] [[application]] the [[laws]] of [[nature]] operate in what seems to be the [[dual]] realms of the [[physical]] and the [[spiritual]], in [[reality]] they are one. The [[First Source and Center]] is the primal [[cause]] of all [[materialization]] and at the same time the first and final [[Father]] of all [[spirits]]. The [[Paradise Father]] appears [[personally]] in the extra-[[Havona]] [[universes]] only as [[pure]] [[energy]] and pure [[spirit]]—as the [[Thought Adjusters]] and other similar [[fragmentations]].

42:11.4 [[Motion]] and [[universe]] [[gravitation]] are twin [[facets]] of the [[impersonal]] [[time-space]] [[mechanism]] of the [[universe of universes]]. The [[levels]] of [[gravity]] [[response]] for [[spirit]], [[mind]], and [[matter]] are quite [[independent]] of [[time]], but only true [[spirit]] levels of [[reality]] are [[independent]] of [[space]] (nonspatial). The higher mind levels of the universe—the [[spirit]]-[[mind]] levels—may also be nonspatial, but the levels of [[material]] mind, such as [[human]] mind, are [[responsive]] to the [[interactions]] of [[universe]] [[gravitation]], losing this [[response]] only in [[proportion]] to [[spirit]] [[identification]]. [[Spirit]]-[[reality]] levels are [[recognized]] by their spirit [[content]], and [[spirituality]] in [[time and space]] is [[measured]] [[inversely]] to the [[linear]]-[[gravity]] [[response]].

42:11.5 [[Linear]]-[[gravity]] [[response]] is a [[quantitative]] [[measure]] of nonspirit [[energy]]. All [[mass]]—[[organized]] [[energy]]—is subject to this grasp except as [[motion]] and [[mind]] [[act]] upon it. [[Linear]] [[gravity]] is the short-range [[cohesive]] [[force]] of the [[macrocosmos]] somewhat as the [[forces]] of [[Particle|intra-atomic]] cohesion are the short-range [[forces]] of the [[microcosmos]]. [[Physical]] [[materialized]] [[energy]], [[organized]] as so-called [[matter]], cannot [[traverse]] [[space]] without affecting [[linear]]-[[gravity]] [[response]]. Although such [[gravity]] [[response]] is directly [[proportional]] to [[mass]], it is so [[modified]] by [[intervening]] [[space]] that the final result is no more than roughly approximated when [[expressed]] as [[inversely]] according to the [[square]] of the [[distance]]. [[Space]] [[eventually]] conquers [[linear]] [[gravitation]] because of the [[presence]] therein of the [[antigravity]] [[influences]] of numerous supermaterial [[forces]] which operate to neutralize [[gravity]] [[action]] and all [[responses]] thereto.

42:11.6 Extremely [[complex]] and highly [[automatic]]-appearing [[cosmic]] [[mechanisms]] always tend to [[conceal]] the [[presence]] of the [[originative]] or [[creative]] indwelling [[mind]] from any and all [[intelligences]] very far below the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_106 universe levels] of the [[nature]] and [[capacity]] of the [[mechanism]] itself. Therefore is it [[inevitable]] that the higher [[universe]] [[mechanisms]] must appear to be mindless to the lower orders of [[creatures]]. The only possible [[exception]] to such a [[conclusion]] would be the implication of mindedness in the amazing [[phenomenon]] of an apparently [[self-maintaining]] [[universe]] —but that is a matter of [[philosophy]] rather than one of [[actual]] [[experience]].

42:11.7 Since [[mind]] [[co-ordinates]] the [[universe]], fixity of [[mechanisms]] is nonexistent. The [[phenomenon]] of [[progressive]] [[evolution]] [[associated]] with [[cosmic]] [[self-maintenance]] is [[universal]]. The [[evolutionary]] [[capacity]] of the [[universe]] is inexhaustible in the [[infinity]] of [[spontaneity]]. [[Progress]] towards [[harmonious]] [[unity]], a growing [[experiential]] [[synthesis]] [[superimposed]] on an ever-increasing [[complexity]] of [[relationships]], could be [[effected]] only by a [[purposive]] and [[dominant]] [[mind]].

==42:12. PATTERN AND FORM—MIND DOMINANCE==   

42:12.1 The evolution of mechanisms implies and indicates the concealed presence and dominance of creative mind. The ability of the mortal intellect to conceive, design, and create automatic mechanisms demonstrates the superior, creative, and purposive qualities of man's mind as the dominant influence on the planet. Mind always reaches out towards:

42:12.2 Mind is always creative. The mind endowment of an individual animal, mortal, morontian, spirit ascender, or finality attainer is always competent to produce a suitable and serviceable body for the living creature identity. But the presence phenomenon of a personality or the pattern of an identity, as such, is not a manifestation of energy, either physical, mindal, or spiritual. The personality form is the pattern aspect of a living being; it connotes the arrangement of energies, and this, plus life and motion, is the mechanism of creature existence.

42:12.3 Even spirit beings have form, and these spirit forms (patterns) are real. Even the highest type of spirit personalities have forms—personality presences in every sense analogous to Urantia mortal bodies. Nearly all beings encountered in the seven superuniverses are possessed of forms. But there are a few exceptions to this general rule: Thought Adjusters appear to be without form until after fusion with the surviving souls of their mortal associates. Solitary Messengers, Inspired Trinity Spirits, Personal Aids of the Infinite Spirit, Gravity Messengers, Transcendental Recorders, and certain others are also without discoverable form. But these are typical of the exceptional few; the great majority have bona fide personality forms, forms which are individually characteristic, and which are recognizable and personally distinguishable.

42:12.4 The liaison of the cosmic mind and the ministry of the adjutant mind-spirits evolve a suitable physical tabernacle for the evolving human being. Likewise does the morontia mind individualize the morontia form for all mortal survivors. As the mortal body is personal and characteristic for every human being, so will the morontia form be highly individual and adequately characteristic of the creative mind which dominates it. No two morontia forms are any more alike than any two human bodies. The Morontia Power Supervisors sponsor, and the attending seraphim provide, the undifferentiated morontia material wherewith the morontia life can begin to work. And after the morontia life it will be found that spirit forms are equally diverse, personal, and characteristic of their respective spirit-mind indwellers.

42:12.5 On a material world you think of a body as having a spirit, but we regard the spirit as having a body. The material eyes are truly the windows of the spirit-born soul. The spirit is the architect, the mind is the builder, the body is the material building.

The [[spirit]] is the [[architect]], the [[mind]] is the builder, the [[body]] is the [[material]] building.

42:12.6 Physical, spiritual, and mindal energies, as such and in their pure states, do not fully interact as actuals of the phenomenal universes. On Paradise the three energies are co-ordinate, in Havona co-ordinated, while in the universe levels of finite activities there must be encountered all ranges of material, mindal, and spiritual dominance. In nonpersonal situations of time and space, physical energy seems to predominate, but it also appears that the more nearly spirit-mind function approaches divinity of purpose and supremacy of action, the more nearly does the spirit phase become dominant; that on the ultimate level spirit-mind may become all but completely dominant. On the absolute level spirit certainly is dominant. And from there on out through the realms of time and space, wherever a divine spirit reality is present, whenever a real spirit-mind is functioning, there always tends to be produced a material or physical counterpart of that spirit reality.
