26:8.4 Not many [[pilgrims]] [[experience]] the delay of seeming [[failure]] in the [[Deity]] [[adventure]]. Nearly all [[attain]] the [[Infinite Spirit]], though occasionally a [[pilgrim]] from [[superuniverse]] number one does not succeed on the first attempt. The [[pilgrims]] who [[attain]] [[the Spirit]] seldom fail in finding [[the Son]]; of those who do fail on the first [[adventure]], almost all hail from [[superuniverses]] three and five. The great [[majority]] of those who fail on the first [[adventure]] to attain [[the Father]], after finding both [[the Spirit]] and [[the Son]], hail from [[superuniverse]] number six, though a few from numbers two and three are likewise unsuccessful. And all this seems clearly to indicate that there is some good and sufficient reason for these [[apparent]] [[failures]]; in reality, simply unescapable delays. | 26:8.4 Not many [[pilgrims]] [[experience]] the delay of seeming [[failure]] in the [[Deity]] [[adventure]].
