47:1.1 Although only [[finaliters]] and certain [[groups]] of salvaged [[children]] and their caretakers are resident on [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_45#45:1._TRANSITIONAL_CULTURE_WORLDS transitional world number one]], provision is made for the [[entertainment]] of all [[classes]] of [[spirit]] [[beings]], [[transition]] [[mortals]], and [[student]] [[visitors]]. The [[spornagia]], who [[function]] on all of these worlds, are [[hospitable]] [[hosts]] to all [[beings]] whom they can [[recognize]]. They have a vague [[feeling]] concerning the [[finaliters]] but cannot [[visualize]] them. They must regard them much as you do the [[angels]] in your present [[physical]] [[state]].

47:1.2 Though the [[finaliter]] world is a [[sphere]] of exquisite [[physical]] [[beauty]] and extraordinary [[morontia]] embellishment, the great [[spirit]] abode located at the [[center]] of [[activities]], the [[temple]] of the [[finaliters]], is not [[visible]] to the unaided [[material]] or early [[morontia]] [[vision]].

47:1.3 All through the [[mansion world]] [[experience]] you are in a way [[spiritually]] [[aware]] of the [[presence]] of your [[glorified]] [[brethren]] of [[Paradise]] [[attainment]], but it is very refreshing, now and then, actually to [[perceive]] them as they [[function]] in their [[headquarters]] [[abodes]]. You will not [[spontaneously]] [[visualize]] [[finaliters]] until you acquire true [[spirit]] [[vision]].

47:1.4 On the first [[mansion world]] all [[survivors]] must pass the [[requirements]] of the [[parental]] commission from their [[native]] [[planets]]. The present [[Urantia]] commission consists of twelve [[parental]] couples, recently arrived, who have had [[mortal]] [[experience]] in rearing [[three]] or more [[children]] to the [[pubescent]] age. [[Service]] on this commission is [[rotational]] and is for only [[ten]] years as a rule. All who fail to [[satisfy]] these commissioners as to their [[parental]] [[experience]] must further [[qualify]] by [[service]] in the [[homes]] of the [[Material Sons]] on [[Jerusem]] or in part in the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_47#47:2._THE_PROBATIONARY_NURSERY probationary nursery] on the [[finaliters]]' world.

These [[parents]] are permitted to [[journey]] there for visits as often as four times a year.

While one or both [[parents]] may leave a [[mansion world]] ahead of the child, they are quite often contemporary for a [[season]].

47:1.6 No [[ascending mortal]] can escape the [[experience]] of rearing [[children]]—their own or others—either on the [[material]] worlds or subsequently on the [[finaliter]] world or on [[Jerusem]]. [[Fathers]] must pass through this [[essential]] [[experience]] just as certainly as [[mothers]]. It is an unfortunate and mistaken notion of modern peoples on [[Urantia]] that child [[culture]] is largely the task of [[mothers]]. [[Children]] need [[fathers]] as well as [[mothers]], and [[fathers]] need this [[parental]] [[experience]] as much as do [[mothers]].

In the event of the [[survival]] of either or both of such a child's [[parents]], the [[guardian of destiny]] deputizes her [[associated]] [[cherubim]] as the custodian of the child's [[potential]] [[identity]], charging the [[cherubim]] with the [[responsibility]] of delivering this undeveloped [[soul]] into the hands of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_48#48:5._THE_MANSION_WORLD_TEACHERS Mansion World Teachers] in the probationary [[nurseries]] of the [[morontia]] worlds.

47:6.3 It is during the period of [[training]] on world number four that the [[ascending mortals]] are really first introduced to the demands and delights of the true social life of [[morontia]] [[creatures]]. And it is indeed a new [[experience]] for [[evolutionary]] [[creatures]] to [[participate]] in social [[activities]] which are predicated neither on [[personal]] [[aggrandizement]] nor on [[self]]-seeking [[conquest]]. A new social order is being introduced, one based on the [[understanding]] [[sympathy]] of [[mutual]] [[appreciation]], the unselfish [[love]] of [[mutual]] [[service]], and the overmastering [[motivation]] of the [[realization]] of a common and [[supreme]] [[destiny]]—the [[Paradise]] goal of [[worshipful]] and [[divine]] [[perfection]]. [[Ascenders]] are all becoming [[self-conscious]] of [[God]]-[[knowing]], God-[[revealing]], God-[[seeking]], and God-finding.

The [[culture]] of this mansion world [[corresponds]] in general to that of the early era of [[light and life]] on the [[planets]] of [[normal]] [[evolutionary]] [[progress]]. And from this you can [[understand]] why it is so arranged that the highly [[cultured]] and [[progressive]] [[types]] of [[beings]] who sometimes inhabit these advanced evolutionary worlds are exempt from passing through one or more, or even all, of the [[Morontia|mansion]] [[spheres]].
