43:1.3 [[Edentia]] and its [[associated]] worlds have a true [[atmosphere]], the usual [[three]]-[[gas]] mixture which is characteristic of such [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_15#15:7._THE_ARCHITECTURAL_SPHERES architectural creations], and which [[embodies]] the [[two]] [[elements]] of Urantian [[atmosphere]] plus that [[morontia]] [[gas]] suitable for the [[respiration]] of [[morontia]] [[creatures]]. But while this [[atmosphere]] is both [[material]] and [[morontial]], there are no [[Turbulence|storms]] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricanes hurricanes]; neither is there [[summer]] nor [[winter]]. This [[absence]] of atmospheric disturbances and of [[season]]al variation makes it [[possible]] to embellish all outdoors on these especially created worlds.

43:1.4 The [[Edentia]] highlands are [[magnificent]] [[physical]] features, and their [[beauty]] is enhanced by the endless profusion of life which abounds throughout their [[length]] and [[breadth]]. Excepting a few rather [[isolated]] [[structures]], these highlands contain no [[work]] of [[creature]] hands. [[Material]] and [[morontia]]l ornamentations are [[limited]] to the dwelling areas. The lesser elevations are the sites of special [[residences]] and are [[beautifully]] embellished with both [[biologic]] and [[morontia]] [[art]].

43:1.5 Situated on the summit of the seventh highland range are the resurrection halls of Edentia, wherein awaken the ascending mortals of the secondary modified order of ascension. These chambers of creature reassembly are under the supervision of the Melchizedeks. The first of the receiving spheres of Edentia (like the planet Melchizedek near Salvington) also has special resurrection halls, wherein the mortals of the modified orders of ascension are reassembled.

43:1.6 The Melchizedeks also maintain two special colleges on Edentia. One, the emergency school, is devoted to the study of problems growing out of the Satania rebellion. The other, the bestowal school, is dedicated to the mastery of the new problems arising out of the fact that Michael made his final bestowal on one of the worlds of Norlatiadek. This latter college was established almost four thousand years ago, immediately after the announcement by Michael that Urantia had been selected as the world for his final bestowal.

43:1.7 The sea of glass, the receiving area of Edentia, is near the administrative center and is encircled by the headquarters amphitheater. Surrounding this area are the governing centers for the seventy divisions of constellation affairs. One half of Edentia is divided into seventy triangular sections, whose boundaries converge at the headquarters buildings of their respective sectors. The remainder of this sphere is one vast natural park, the gardens of God.

43:1.8 During your periodic visits to Edentia, though the entire planet is open to your inspection, most of your time will be spent in that administrative triangle whose number corresponds to that of your current residential world. You will always be welcome as an observer in the legislative assemblies.

43:1.9 The morontia area assigned to ascending mortals resident on Edentia is located in the mid-zone of the thirty-fifth triangle adjoining the headquarters of the finaliters, situated in the thirty-sixth triangle. The general headquarters of the univitatia occupies an enormous area in the mid-region of the thirty-fourth triangle immediately adjoining the residential reservation of the morontia citizens. From these arrangements it may be seen that provision is made for the accommodation of at least seventy major divisions of celestial life, and also that each of these seventy triangular areas is correlated with some one of the seventy major spheres of morontia training.

43:1.10 The Edentia sea of glass is one enormous circular crystal about one hundred miles in circumference and about thirty miles in depth. This magnificent crystal serves as the receiving field for all transport seraphim and other beings arriving from points outside the sphere; such a sea of glass greatly facilitates the landing of transport seraphim.

43:1.11 A crystal field on this order is found on almost all architectural worlds; and it serves many purposes aside from its decorative value, being utilized for portraying superuniverse reflectivity to assembled groups and as a factor in the energy-transformation technique for modifying the currents of space and for adapting other incoming physical-energy streams.
