116:6.1 In the [[evolutionary superuniverses]] [[energy]]-[[matter]] is [[dominant]] except in [[personality]], where [[spirit]] through the [[mediation]] of [[mind]] is struggling for the mastery. The goal of the [[evolutionary universes]] is the subjugation of [[energy]]-[[matter]] by [[mind]], the [[co-ordination]] of [[mind]] with [[spirit]], and all of this by [[virtue]] of the [[creative]] and unifying [[presence]] of [[personality]]. Thus, in [[relation]] to [[personality]], do [[physical]] [[systems]] become subordinate; [[mind]] systems, [[co-ordinate]]; and [[spirit]] systems, directive.

116:6.2 This [[union]] of [[power]] and [[personality]] is [[expressive]] on [[deity]] [[levels]] in and as [[the Supreme]]. But the [[actual]] [[evolution]] of [[spirit]] [[dominance]] is a [[growth]] which is predicated on the [[freewill]] [[acts]] of [[the Creators]] and [[creatures]] of the [[grand universe]].

116:6.3 On [[absolute]] [[levels]], [[energy]] and [[spirit]] are one. But the [[moment]] departure is made from such [[absolute]] levels, [[difference]] appears, and as [[energy]] and [[spirit]] move spaceward from [[Paradise]], the gulf between them widens until in the [[local universes]] they have become quite [[divergent]]. They are no longer [[identical]], neither are they alike, and [[mind]] must [[intervene]] to interrelate them.

116:6.4 That [[energy]] can be directionized by the [[action]] of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#PAPER_29:_THE_UNIVERSE_POWER_DIRECTORS controller personalities] discloses the [[responsiveness]] of [[energy]] to [[mind]] [[action]]. That [[mass]] can be [[stabilized]] through the [[action]] of these same [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#PAPER_29:_THE_UNIVERSE_POWER_DIRECTORS controlling entities] indicates the [[responsiveness]] of [[mass]] to the order-producing [[presence]] of [[mind]]. And that [[spirit]] itself in [[volitional]] [[personality]] can strive through [[mind]] for the mastery of [[energy]]-[[matter]] discloses the [[potential]] [[unity]] of all [[finite]] [[creation]].

116:6.5 There is an [[interdependence]] of all [[forces]] and [[personalities]] throughout the [[universe of universes]]. [[Creator Sons]] and [[Creative Spirits]] depend on the [[co-operative]] [[function]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:2._THE_SUPREME_POWER_CENTERS power centers] and [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:4._THE_MASTER_PHYSICAL_CONTROLLERS physical controllers] in the [[organization]] of [[universes]]; the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:1._THE_SEVEN_SUPREME_POWER_DIRECTORS Supreme Power Directors] are incomplete without the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_118#118:8._CONTROL_AND_OVERCONTROL overcontrol] of the [[Master Spirits]]. In a [[human being]] the [[mechanism]] of [[physical]] life is [[responsive]], in [[part]], to the dictates of ([[personal]]) [[mind]]. This very mind may, in turn, become [[dominated]] by the [[leadings]] of [[purposive]] [[spirit]], and the result of such [[evolutionary]] [[development]] is the production of a new child of [[the Supreme]], a new [[personal]] [[unification]] of the several kinds of [[cosmic]] [[reality]].

116:6.6 And as it is with the [[parts]], so it is with the [[whole]]; the [[spirit]] [[person]] of [[Supremacy]] requires the [[evolutionary]] [[power]] of the ''Almighty'' to achieve completion of [[Deity]] and to [[attain]] [[destiny]] of [[Trinity]] [[association]]. The [[effort]] is made by the [[personalities]] of [[time and space]], but the culmination and [[consummation]] of this [[effort]] is the [[act]] of the ''Almighty Supreme''. And while the [[growth]] of the [[whole]] is thus a [[totalizing]] of the [[collective]] [[growth]] of the [[parts]], it equally follows that the [[evolution]] of the [[parts]] is a segmented [[reflection]] of the [[purposive]] [[growth]] of the [[whole]].

116:6.7 On [[Paradise]], [[monota]] and [[spirit]] are as one—indistinguishable except by [[name]]. In [[Havona]], [[matter]] and [[spirit]], while distinguishably [[different]], are at the same time [[innately]] [[harmonious]]. In the [[seven superuniverses]], however, there is great [[divergence]]; there is a wide gulf between [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Foreword#VI._ENERGY_AND_PATTERN cosmic energy] and [[divine]] [[spirit]]; therefore is there a greater [[experiential]] [[potential]] for [[mind]] [[action]] in [[harmonizing]] and [[eventually]] unifying [[physical]] [[pattern]] with [[spiritual]] [[purposes]]. In the [[time]]-[[evolving universes]] of [[space]] there is greater [[divinity]] attenuation, more [[difficult]] [[problems]] to be solved, and larger [[opportunity]] to acquire [[experience]] in their solution. And this entire [[superuniverse]] situation brings into [[being]] a larger arena of [[evolutionary]] [[existence]] in which the [[possibility]] of [[cosmic]] [[experience]] is made available alike to [[creature]] and [[Creator]]—even to [[Supreme]] Deity.

116:6.8 The [[dominance]] of [[spirit]], which is [[existential]] on [[absolute]] [[levels]], becomes an [[evolutionary]] [[experience]] on [[finite]] [[levels]] and in the [[seven superuniverses]]. And this [[experience]] is [[shared]] alike by all, from [[mortal]] man to the [[Supreme Being]]. All strive, [[personally]] strive, in the [[achievement]]; all participate, [[personally]] [[participate]], in the [[destiny]].
