42:12.2 [[Mind]] is always [[creative]]. The [[mind]] [[endowment]] of an [[individual]] [[animal]], [[mortal]], [[morontia]]n, [[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]], [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_24#24:3._PERSONAL_AIDS_OF_THE_INFINITE_SPIRIT Personal Aids of the Infinite Spirit], [[Gravity Messengers]], [[Transcendental Recorders]], and certain others are also without [[discoverable]] [[form]]. But these are typical of the [[exception]]al 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 [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_48#48:2._MORONTIA_POWER_SUPERVISORS 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]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye 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.
