21:2.1 The [[Paradise Sons]] of the primary order are the [[designers]], [[creators]], builders, and [[administrators]] of their respective domains, the [[local universes]] of [[time and space]], the basic [[creative]] [[units]] of the [[seven evolutionary superuniverses]]. A [[Creator Son]] is permitted to [[choose]] the space site of his [[future]] [[cosmic]] [[activity]], but before he may begin even the [[physical]] [[organization]] of his [[universe]], he must spend a long period of [[observation]] [[devoted]] to the [[study]] of the [[efforts]] of his older [[brothers]] in various [[creations]] located in the [[superuniverse]] of his [[projected]] [[action]]. And prior to all this, the Michael Son will have completed his long and [[unique]] [[experience]] of [[Paradise]] [[observation]] and [[Havona]] [[training]].
21:2.2 When a [[Creator Son]] departs from [[Paradise]] to embark upon the [[adventure]] of [[universe]] making, to become the head—virtually the [[God]]—of the [[local universe]] of his own [[organization]], then, for the first time, he finds himself in [[intimate]] contact with, and in many respects dependent upon, the [[Third Source and Center]]. [[The Infinite Spirit]], though abiding with [[the Father]] and [[the Son]] at the [[center]] of [[all things]], is [[destined]] to [[function]] as the [[actual]] and [[effective]] helper of each Creator Son. Therefore is each Creator Son accompanied by a [[Creative Daughter]] of the [[Infinite Spirit]], that [[being]] who is [[destined]] to become the Divine Minister, the [[Mother Spirit]] of the new [[local universe]].
21:2.3 The departure of a Michael Son on this occasion forever [[liberates]] his [[creator]] [[prerogatives]] from the [[Paradise]] Sources and Centers, subject only to certain [[limitations]] [[inherent]] in the pre-existence of these Sources and Centers and to certain other antecedent [[powers]] and [[presences]]. Among these [[limitations]] to the otherwise all-powerful creator prerogatives of a [[local universe]] [[Father]] are the following:
*1. 21:2.4 [[Energy]]-[[matter]] is dominated by the [[Infinite Spirit]]. Before any new [[forms]] of [[things]], great or small, may be created, before any new [[transformations]] of energy-matter may be attempted, a Creator Son must secure the consent and working [[co-operation]] of the [[Infinite Spirit]].
*2. 21:2.5 [[Creature]] [[designs]] and [[types]] are [[controlled]] by the [[Eternal Son]]. Before a Creator Son may engage in the [[creation]] of any new [[type]] of [[being]], any new [[design]] of [[creature]], he must secure the consent of the Eternal and [[Original Mother Son]].
*3. 21:2.6 [[Personality]] i s [[designed]] and bestowed by the [[Universal Father]].
21:2.7 The [[types]] and [[patterns]] of [[mind]] are determined by the precreature factors of [[being]]. After these have been [[associated]] to [[constitute]] a [[creature]] ([[personal]] or otherwise), [[mind]] is the endowment of the [[Third Source and Center]], the [[universal]] [[source]] of [[mind]] ministry to all [[beings]] below the level of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paradise_Trinity#10:3._THE_THREE_PERSONS_OF_DEITY Paradise Creators].
21:2.8 The [[control]] of [[spirit]] [[designs]] and [[types]] depends on the level of their [[manifestation]]. In the last [[analysis]], spiritual design is controlled by the [[Trinity]] or by the pre-Trinity [[spirit]] [[endowments]] of the Trinity [[personalities]]—[[Universal Father|Father]], [[Eternal Son|Son]], and [[Infinite Spirit|Spirit]].
21:2.9 When such a [[perfect]] and divine Son has taken [[possession]] of the [[space]] site of his chosen [[universe]]; when the initial [[problems]] of universe [[materialization]] and of gross [[equilibrium]] have been resolved; when he has formed an [[effective]] and [[co-operative]] [[working]] [[union]] with the [[complemental]] [[Divine Minister|Daughter of the Infinite Spirit]]—then do this Universe Son and this Universe Spirit [[initiate]] that [[liaison]] which is [[designed]] to give [[origin]] to the innumerable hosts of their [[local universe]] [[children]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_32#32:2._UNIVERSE_ORGANIZATION] In [[connection]] with this [[event]] the [[Creative Spirit]] [[focalization]] of the [[Paradise]] [[Infinite Spirit]] becomes [[changed]] in [[nature]], taking on the [[personal]] qualities of the [[Mother Spirit]] of a [[local universe]].
21:2.10 Notwithstanding that all [[Creator Sons]] are [[divinely]] like their [[Paradise]] [[parents]], none exactly resembles another; each is [[unique]], [[diverse]], exclusive, and [[original]] in [[nature]] as well as in [[personality]]. And since they are the [[architects]] and makers of the life plans of their respective realms, this very [[diversity]] insures that their domains will also be diverse in every [[form]] and [[phase]] of Michael-derived living [[existence]] which may be created or subsequently evolved therein. Hence the orders of [[creatures]] native to the local universes are quite varied. No two are [[administered]] or inhabited by dual-origin native beings who are in all respects identical. Within any [[superuniverse]], one half of their [[inherent]] [[attributes]] are quite alike, being derived from the [[uniform]] [[Creative Spirits]]; the other half vary, being derived from the diversified [[Creator Sons]]. But such [[diversity]] does not characterize those [[creatures]] of sole [[origin]] in the [[Creative Spirit]] nor those imported beings who are native to the [[Havona|central]] or [[superuniverses]].
21:2.11 When a Michael Son is [[absent]] from his [[universe]], its [[government]] is directed by the first-born native being, the [[Bright and Morning Star]], the[[ local universe]] chief [[executive]]. The advice and [[counsel]] of the [[Union of Days]] is invaluable at such times. During these [[absences]] a [[Creator Son]] is able to invest the [[associated]] [[Mother Spirit]] with the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_12#12:6._UNIVERSAL_OVERCONTROL overcontrol] of his [[spiritual]] [[presence]] on the [[inhabited worlds]] and in the [[hearts]] of his [[mortal]] [[children]]. And the [[Mother Spirit]] of a [[local universe]] remains always at its headquarters, extending her fostering care and [[spiritual]] [[ministry]] to the uttermost parts of such an evolutionary domain.
21:2.12 The [[personal]] [[presence]] of a[[ Creator Son]] in his [[local universe]] is not [[necessary]] to the smooth running of an established [[material]] [[creation]]. Such Sons may [[journey]] to [[Paradise]], and still their [[universes]] swing on through [[space]]. They may lay down their lines of [[power]] to [[incarnate]] as the [[children]] of [[time]]; still their realms whirl on about their respective [[center]]s. No [[material]] [[organization]] is [[independent]] of the [[absolute]]-[[gravity]] grasp of [[Paradise]] or of the [[cosmic]] overcontrol [[inherent]] in the space [[presence]] of the [[Unqualified Absolute]].
