26:10.1 The superaphic [[counselors]] and advisers of the second circle are the [[instructors]] of the [[children]] of [[time]] regarding the [[career]] of [[eternity]]. The [[attainment]] of [[Paradise]] entails [[responsibilities]] of a new and higher order, and the [[sojourn]] on the second circle affords ample [[opportunity]] to receive the helpful [[counsel]] of these devoted [[supernaphim]].

26:10.2 Those who are unsuccessful in the first effort at [[Deity]] [[attainment]] are advanced from the circle of [[failure]] directly to the second circle before they are returned to [[superuniverse]] [[service]]. Thus the [[counselors]] and advisers also serve as the counselors and comforters of these [[disappointed]] [[pilgrims]]. They have just encountered their greatest [[disappointment]], in no way [[differing]] from the long list of such [[experiences]] whereon they climbed, as on a ladder, from [[chaos]] to [[glory]]—except in its [[magnitude]]. These are they who have drained the [[experiential]] cup to its dregs; and I have [[observed]] that they temporarily return to the [[services]] of [[the superuniverses]] as the highest [[type]] of loving ministrators to the [[children]] of [[time]] and temporal [[disappointments]].

26:10.3 After a long [[sojourn]] on circuit number two the subjects of [[disappointment]] are examined by the councils of [[perfection]] sitting on the pilot world of this [[circle]] and are certified as having passed the [[Havona]] test; and this, so far as nonspiritual [[status]] is concerned, grants them the same standing in the [[universes]] of [[time]] as if they had actually succeeded in the [[Deity]] [[adventure]]. The [[spirit]] of such [[candidates]] was wholly [[acceptable]]; their failure was [[inherent]] in some [[phase]] of the [[technique]] of approach or in some part of their [[experiential]] background.

26:10.4 They are then taken by the [[counselors]] of the circle before the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_27#27:2._CHIEFS_OF_ASSIGNMENT chiefs of assignment] on [[Paradise]] and are remanded to the [[service]] of [[time]] on the worlds of [[space]]; and they go with joy and gladness to the tasks of former days and ages. In another day they will return to the circle of their greatest [[disappointment]] and attempt anew the [[Deity]] [[adventure]].

26:10.5 For the successful [[pilgrims]] on the second circuit the [[stimulus]] of [[evolutionary]] [[uncertainty]] is over, but the [[adventure]] of the [[eternal]] assignment has not yet begun; and while the [[sojourn]] on this circle is wholly [[pleasurable]] and highly profitable, it lacks some of the [[anticipative]] [[enthusiasm]] of the former circles. Many are the [[pilgrims]] who, at such a time, look back upon the long, long struggle with a [[joyous]] [[envy]], really wishing they might somehow go back to the worlds of [[time]] and begin it all over again, just as you [[mortals]], in approaching advanced age, sometimes look back over the [[struggles]] of [[youth]] and early life and truly wish you might live your lives over once again.

26:10.6 But the traversal of the innermost circle lies just ahead, and soon thereafter the last transit [[sleep]] will terminate, and the new [[adventure]] of the [[eternal]] [[career]] will begin. The [[counselors]] and advisers on the second circle begin the [[preparation]] of their subjects for this great and final rest, the [[inevitable]] [[sleep]] which ever [[intervenes]] between the [[epochal]] [[stages]] of the [[ascendant career]].

26:10.7 When those [[ascendant]] [[pilgrims]] who have [[attained]] the [[Universal Father]] complete the second-circle experience, their ever-attendant [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_24#24:6._THE_GRADUATE_GUIDES Graduate Guides] issue the order admitting them to the final circle. These guides [[personally]] pilot their subjects to the inner circle and there place them in the custody of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_26#26:11._THE_COMPLEMENTS_OF_REST complements of rest], the last of those orders of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_26#26:4._THE_SECONDARY_SUPERNAPHIM secondary supernaphim] assigned to the ministry of the [[pilgrims]] of [[time]] on the world circuits of [[Havona]].
