PAPER 14
THE CENTRAL AND DIVINE UNIVERSE
14:0.1
THE perfect and divine universe occupies the center of
all creation; it is the eternal core around which the
vast creations of time and space revolve. Paradise is
the gigantic nuclear Isle of absolute stability which
rests motionless at the very heart of the magnificent
eternal universe. This central planetary family is
called Havona and is far-distant from the local universe
of Nebadon. It is of enormous dimensions and almost
unbelievable mass and consists of one billion spheres of
unimagined beauty and superb grandeur, but the true
magnitude of this vast creation is really beyond the
understanding grasp of the human mind.
14:0.2
This is the one and only settled, perfect, and
established aggregation of worlds. This is a wholly
created and perfect universe; it is not an evolutionary
development. This is the eternal core of perfection,
about which swirls that endless procession of universes
which constitute the tremendous evolutionary experiment,
the audacious adventure of the Creator Sons of God, who
aspire to duplicate in time and to reproduce in space
the pattern universe, the ideal of divine completeness,
supreme finality, ultimate reality, and eternal
perfection.
1. THE PARADISE-HAVONA SYSTEM
14:1.1
From the periphery of Paradise to the inner borders of
the seven superuniverses there are the following seven
space conditions and motions:
1. The quiescent midspace zones impinging on Paradise.
2. The clockwise processional of the three Paradise and
the seven Havona circuits.
3. The semiquiet space zone separating the Havona
circuits from the dark gravity bodies of the central
universe.
4. The inner, counterclockwise-moving belt of the dark
gravity bodies.
5. The second unique space zone dividing the two space
paths of the dark gravity bodies.
6. The outer belt of dark gravity bodies, revolving
clockwise around Paradise.
7. A third space zone -- a semiquiet zone -- separating
the outer belt of dark gravity bodies from the innermost
circuits of the seven superuniverses.
14:1.2
The billion worlds of Havona are arranged in seven
concentric circuits immediately surrounding the three
circuits of Paradise satellites. There are upwards of
thirty-five million worlds in the innermost Havona
circuit and over two hundred and forty-five million in
the outermost, with proportionate numbers intervening.
Each circuit differs, but all are perfectly balanced and
exquisitely organized, and each is pervaded by a
specialized representation of the Infinite Spirit, one
of the Seven Spirits of the Circuits. In addition to
other functions this impersonal Spirit co-ordinates the
conduct of celestial affairs throughout each circuit.
14:1.3
The Havona planetary circuits are not superimposed;
their worlds follow each other in an orderly linear
procession. The central universe whirls around the
stationary Isle of Paradise in one vast plane,
consisting of ten concentric stabilized units -- the
three circuits of Paradise spheres and the seven
circuits of Havona worlds. Physically regarded, the
Havona and the Paradise circuits are all one and the
same system; their separation is in recognition of
functional and administrative segregation.
14:1.4
Time is not reckoned on Paradise; the sequence of
successive events is inherent in the concept of those
who are indigenous to the central Isle. But time is
germane to the Havona circuits and to numerous beings of
both celestial and terrestrial origin sojourning
thereon. Each Havona world has its own local time,
determined by its circuit. All worlds in a given circuit
have the same length of year since they uniformly swing
around Paradise, and the length of these planetary years
decreases from the outermost to the innermost circuit.
14:1.5
Besides Havona-circuit time, there is the
Paradise-Havona standard day and other time designations
which are determined on, and are sent out from, the
seven Paradise satellites of the Infinite Spirit. The
Paradise-Havona standard day is based on the length of
time required for the planetary abodes of the first or
inner Havona circuit to complete one revolution around
the Isle of Paradise; and though their velocity is
enormous, owing to their situation between the dark
gravity bodies and gigantic Paradise, it requires almost
one thousand years for these spheres to complete their
circuit. You have unwittingly read the truth when your
eyes rested on the statement "A day is as a thousand
years with God, as but a watch in the night." One
Paradise-Havona day is just seven minutes, three and
one-eighth seconds less than one thousand years of the
present Urantia leap-year calendar.
14:1.6
This Paradise-Havona day is the standard time
measurement for the seven superuniverses, although each
maintains its own internal time standards.
14:1.7
On the outskirts of this vast central universe, far out
beyond the seventh belt of Havona worlds, there swirl an
unbelievable number of enormous dark gravity bodies.
These multitudinous dark masses are quite unlike other
space bodies in many particulars; even in form they are
very different. These dark gravity bodies neither
reflect nor absorb light; they are nonreactive to
physical-energy light, and they so completely encircle
and enshroud Havona as to hide it from the view of even
near-by inhabited universes of time and space.
14:1.8
The great belt of dark gravity bodies is divided into
two equal elliptical circuits by a unique space
intrusion. The inner belt revolves counterclockwise; the
outer revolves clockwise. These alternate directions of
motion, coupled with the extraordinary mass of the dark
bodies, so effectively equalize the lines of Havona
gravity as to render the central universe a physically
balanced and perfectly stabilized creation.
14:1.9
The inner procession of dark gravity bodies is tubular
in arrangement, consisting of three circular groupings.
A cross section of this circuit would exhibit three
concentric circles of about equal density. The outer
circuit of dark gravity bodies is arranged
perpendicularly, being ten thousand times higher than
the inner circuit. The up-and-down diameter of the outer
circuit is fifty thousand times that of the transverse
diameter.
14:1.10
The intervening space which exists between these two
circuits of gravity bodies is
unique in
that nothing like it is to be found elsewhere in all the
wide universe. This zone is characterized by enormous
wave movements of an up-and-down nature and is permeated
by tremendous energy activities of an unknown order.
14:1.11
In our opinion, nothing like the dark gravity bodies of
the central universe will characterize the future
evolution of the outer space levels; we regard these
alternate processions of stupendous gravity-balancing
bodies as unique in the master universe.
2. CONSTITUTION OF HAVONA
14:2.1
Spirit beings do not dwell in nebulous space; they do
not inhabit ethereal worlds; they are domiciled on
actual spheres of a material nature, worlds just as real
as those on which mortals live. The Havona worlds are
actual and literal, albeit their literal substance
differs from the material organization of the planets of
the seven superuniverses.
14:2.2
The physical realities of Havona represent an order of
energy organization radically different from any
prevailing in the evolutionary universes of space.
Havona energies are threefold; superuniverse units of
energy-matter contain a twofold energy charge, although
one form of energy exists in negative and positive
phases. The creation of the central universe is
threefold (Trinity); the creation of a local universe
(directly) is twofold, by a Creator Son and a Creative
Spirit.
14:2.3
The material of Havona consists of the organization of
exactly one thousand basic chemical elements and the
balanced function of the seven forms of Havona energy.
Each of these basic energies manifests seven phases of
excitation, so that the Havona natives respond to
forty-nine differing sensation stimuli. In other words,
viewed from a purely physical standpoint, the natives of
the central universe possess forty-nine specialized
forms of sensation. The morontia senses are seventy, and
the higher spiritual orders of reaction response vary in
different types of beings from seventy to two hundred
and ten.
14:2.4
None of the physical beings of the central universe
would be visible to Urantians. Neither would any of the
physical stimuli of those faraway worlds excite a
reaction in your gross sense organs. If a Urantia mortal
could be transported to Havona, he would there be deaf,
blind, and utterly lacking in all other sense reactions;
he could only function as a limited self-conscious being
deprived of all environmental stimuli and all reactions
thereto.
14:2.5
There are numerous physical phenomena and spiritual
reactions transpiring in the central creation which are
unknown on worlds such as Urantia. The basic
organization of a threefold creation is wholly unlike
that of the twofold constitution of the created
universes of time and space.
14:2.6
All natural law is co-ordinated on a basis entirely
different than in the dual-energy systems of the
evolving creations. The entire central universe is
organized in accordance with the threefold system of
perfect and symmetrical control. Throughout the whole
Paradise-Havona system there is maintained a perfect
balance between all cosmic realities and all spiritual
forces. Paradise, with an absolute grasp of material
creation, perfectly regulates and maintains the physical
energies of this central universe; the Eternal Son, as a
part of his all-embracing spirit grasp, most perfectly
sustains the spiritual status of all who indwell Havona.
On Paradise nothing is experimental, and the
Paradise-Havona system is a unit of creative perfection.
14:2.7
The universal spiritual gravity of the Eternal Son is
amazingly active throughout the central universe. All
spirit values and spiritual personalities are
unceasingly drawn inward towards the abode of the Gods.
This Godward urge is intense and inescapable. The
ambition to attain God is stronger in the central
universe, not because spirit gravity is stronger than in
the outlying universes, but because those beings who
have attained Havona are more fully spiritualized and
hence more responsive to the ever-present action of the
universal spirit-gravity pull of the Eternal Son.
14:2.8
Likewise does the Infinite Spirit draw all intellectual
values Paradiseward. Throughout the central universe the
mind gravity of the Infinite Spirit functions in liaison
with the spirit gravity of the Eternal Son, and these
together constitute the combined urge of the ascendant
souls to find God, to attain Deity, to achieve Paradise,
and to know the Father.
14:2.9
Havona is a spiritually perfect and physically stable
universe. The control and balanced stability of the
central universe appear to be perfect. Everything
physical or spiritual is perfectly predictable, but mind
phenomena and personality volition are not. We do infer
that sin can be reckoned as impossible of occurrence,
but we do this on the ground that the native freewill
creatures of Havona have never been guilty of
transgressing the will of Deity. Through all eternity
these supernal beings have been consistently loyal to
the Eternals of Days. Neither has sin appeared in any
creature who has entered Havona as a pilgrim. There has
never been an instance of misconduct by any creature of
any group of personalities ever created in, or admitted
to, the central Havona universe. So perfect and so
divine are the methods and means of selection in the
universes of time that never in the records of Havona
has an error occurred; no mistakes have ever been made;
no ascendant soul has ever been prematurely admitted to
the central universe.
3. THE HAVONA WORLDS
14:3.1
Concerning the government of the central universe, there
is none. Havona is so exquisitely perfect that no
intellectual system of government is required. There are
no regularly constituted courts, neither are there
legislative assemblies; Havona requires only
administrative direction. Here may be observed the
height of the ideals of true
self-government.
14:3.2
There is no need of government among such perfect and
near-perfect intelligences. They stand in no need of
regulation, for they are beings of native perfection
interspersed with evolutionary creatures who have long
since passed the scrutiny of the supreme tribunals of
the superuniverses.
14:3.3
The administration of Havona is not automatic, but it is
marvelously perfect and divinely efficient. It is
chiefly planetary and is vested in the resident Eternal
of Days, each Havona sphere being directed by one of
these Trinity-origin personalities. Eternals of Days are
not creators, but they are perfect administrators. They
teach with supreme skill and direct their planetary
children with a perfection of wisdom bordering on
absoluteness.
14:3.4
The billion spheres of the central universe constitute
the training worlds of the high personalities native to
Paradise and Havona and further serve as the final
proving grounds for ascending creatures from the
evolutionary worlds of time. In the execution of the
Universal Father's great plan of creature ascension the
pilgrims of time are landed on the receiving worlds of
the outer or seventh circuit, and subsequent to
increased training and enlarged experience, they are
progressively advanced inward, planet by planet and
circle by circle, until they finally attain the Deities
and achieve residence on Paradise.
14:3.5
At present, although the spheres of the seven circuits
are maintained in all their supernal glory, only about
one per cent of all planetary capacity is utilized in
the work of furthering the Father's universal plan of
mortal ascension. About one tenth of one per cent of the
area of these enormous worlds is dedicated to the life
and activities of the Corps of the Finality, beings
eternally settled in light and life who often sojourn
and minister on the Havona worlds. These exalted beings
have their personal residences on Paradise.
14:3.6
The planetary construction of the Havona spheres is
entirely unlike that of the evolutionary worlds and
systems of space. Nowhere else in all the grand universe
is it convenient to utilize such enormous spheres as
inhabited worlds. Triata physical constitution, coupled
with the balancing effect of the immense dark gravity
bodies, makes it possible so perfectly to equalize the
physical forces and so exquisitely to balance the
various attractions of this tremendous creation.
Antigravity is also employed in the organization of the
material functions and the spiritual activities of these
enormous worlds.
14:3.7
The architecture, lighting, and heating, as well as the
biologic and artistic embellishment, of the Havona
spheres, are quite beyond the greatest possible stretch
of human imagination. You cannot be told much about
Havona; to understand its beauty and grandeur you must
see it. But there are real rivers and lakes on these
perfect worlds.
14:3.8
Spiritually these worlds are ideally appointed; they are
fittingly adapted to their purpose of harboring the
numerous orders of differing beings who function in the
central universe. Manifold activities take place on
these beautiful worlds which are far beyond human
comprehension.
4. CREATURES OF THE CENTRAL UNIVERSE
14:4.1
There are seven basic forms of living things and beings
on the Havona worlds, and each of these basic forms
exists in three distinct phases. Each of these three
phases is divided into seventy major divisions, and each
major division is composed of one thousand minor
divisions, with yet other subdivisions, and so on. These
basic life groups might be classified as:
1. Material.
2. Morontial.
3. Spiritual.
4. Absonite.
5. Ultimate.
6. Coabsolute.
7. Absolute.
14:4.2
Decay and death are not a part of the cycle of life on
the Havona worlds. In the central universe the lower
living things undergo the transmutation of
materialization. They do change form and manifestation,
but they do not resolve by process of decay and cellular
death.
14:4.3
The Havona natives are all the offspring of the Paradise
Trinity. They are without creature parents, and they are
nonreproducing beings. We cannot portray the creation of
these citizens of the central universe, beings who never
were created. The entire story of the creation of Havona
is an attempt to time-space an eternity fact which has
no relation to time or space as mortal man comprehends
them. But we must concede human philosophy a point of
origin; even personalities far above the human level
require a concept of "beginnings." Nevertheless, the
Paradise-Havona system is eternal.
14:4.4
The natives of Havona live on the billion spheres of the
central universe in the same sense that other orders of
permanent citizenship dwell on their respective spheres
of nativity. As the material order of sonship carries on
the material, intellectual, and spiritual economy of a
billion local systems in a superuniverse, so, in a
larger sense, do the Havona natives live and function on
the billion worlds of the central universe. You might
possibly regard these Havoners as material creatures in
the sense that the word "material" could be expanded to
describe the physical realities of the divine universe.
14:4.5
There is a life that is native to Havona and possesses
significance in and of itself. Havoners minister in many
ways to Paradise descenders and to superuniverse
ascenders, but they also live lives that are unique in
the central universe and have relative meaning quite
apart from either Paradise or the superuniverses.
14:4.6
As the worship of the faith sons of the evolutionary
worlds ministers to the satisfaction of the Universal
Father's love, so the exalted adoration of the Havona
creatures satiates the perfect ideals of divine beauty
and truth. As mortal man strives to do the will of God,
these beings of the central universe live to gratify the
ideals of the Paradise Trinity. In their very nature
they are the will of God. Man rejoices in the goodness
of God, Havoners exult in the divine beauty, while you
both enjoy the ministry of the liberty of living truth.
14:4.7
Havoners have both optional present and future
unrevealed destinies. And there is a progression of
native creatures that is peculiar to the central
universe, a progression that involves neither ascent to
Paradise nor penetration of the superuniverses. This
progression to higher Havona status may be suggested as
follows:
1. Experiential progress outward from the first to the
seventh circuit.
2. Progress inward from the seventh to the first
circuit.
3. Intracircuit progress -- progression within the
worlds of a given circuit.
14:4.8
In addition to the Havona natives, the inhabitants of
the central universe embrace numerous classes of pattern
beings for various universe groups -- advisers,
directors, and teachers of their kind and to their kind
throughout creation. All beings in all universes are
fashioned along the lines of some one order of pattern
creature living on some one of the billion worlds of
Havona. Even the mortals of time have their goal and
ideals of creature existence on the outer circuits of
these pattern spheres on high.
14:4.9
Then there are those beings who have attained the
Universal Father, and who are entitled to go and come,
who are assigned here and there in the universes on
missions of special service. And on every Havona world
will be found the attainment candidates, those who have
physically attained the central universe, but who have
not yet achieved that spiritual development which will
enable them to claim Paradise residence.
14:4.10
The Infinite Spirit is represented on the Havona worlds
by a host of personalities, beings of grace and glory,
who administer the details of the intricate intellectual
and spiritual affairs of the central universe. On these
worlds of divine perfection they perform the work
indigenous to the normal conduct of this vast creation
and, in addition, carry on the manifold tasks of
teaching, training, and ministering to the enormous
numbers of ascendant creatures who have climbed to glory
from the dark worlds of space.
14:4.11
There are numerous groups of beings native to the
Paradise-Havona system that are in no way directly
associated with the ascension scheme of creature
perfection attainment; therefore are they omitted from
the personality classifications presented to the mortal
races. Only the major groups of superhuman beings and
those orders directly connected with your survival
experience are herein presented.
14:4.12
Havona teems with the life of all phases of intelligent
beings, who there seek to advance from lower to higher
circuits in their efforts to attain higher levels of
divinity realization and enlarged appreciation of
supreme meanings, ultimate values, and absolute reality.
5. LIFE IN HAVONA
14:5.1
On Urantia you pass through a short and intense test
during your initial life of material existence. On the
mansion worlds and up through your system,
constellation, and local universe, you traverse the
morontia phases of ascension. On the training worlds of
the superuniverse you pass through the true spirit
stages of progression and are prepared for eventual
transit to Havona. On the seven circuits of Havona your
attainment is intellectual, spiritual, and experiential.
And there is a definite task to be achieved on each of
the worlds of each of these circuits.
14:5.2
Life on the divine worlds of the central universe is so
rich and full, so complete and replete, that it wholly
transcends the human concept of anything a created being
could possibly experience. The social and economic
activities of this eternal creation are entirely
dissimilar to the occupations of material creatures
living on evolutionary worlds like Urantia. Even the
technique of Havona thought is unlike the process of
thinking on Urantia.
14:5.3
The regulations of the central universe are fittingly
and inherently natural; the rules of conduct are not
arbitrary. In every requirement of Havona there is
disclosed the reason of righteousness and the rule of
justice. And these two factors, combined, equal what on
Urantia would be denominated
fairness.
When you arrive in Havona, you will naturally enjoy
doing things the way they should be done.
14:5.4
When intelligent beings first attain the central
universe, they are received and domiciled on the pilot
world of the seventh Havona circuit. As the new arrivals
progress spiritually, attain identity comprehension of
their superuniverse Master Spirit, they are transferred
to the sixth circle. (It is from these arrangements in
the central universe that the circles of progress in the
human mind have been designated.) After ascenders have
attained a realization of Supremacy and are thereby
prepared for the Deity adventure, they are taken to the
fifth circuit; and after attaining the Infinite Spirit,
they are transferred to the fourth. Following the
attainment of the Eternal Son, they are removed to the
third; and when they have recognized the Universal
Father, they go to sojourn on the second circuit of
worlds, where they become more familiar with the
Paradise hosts. Arrival on the first circuit of Havona
signifies the acceptance of the candidates of time into
the service of Paradise. Indefinitely, according to the
length and nature of the creature ascension, they will
tarry on the inner circuit of progressive spiritual
attainment. From this inner circuit the ascending
pilgrims pass inward to Paradise residence and admission
to the Corps of the Finality.
14:5.5
During your sojourn in Havona as a pilgrim of ascent,
you will be allowed to visit freely among the worlds of
the circuit of your assignment. You will also be
permitted to go back to the planets of those circuits
you have previously traversed. And all this is possible
to those who sojourn on the circles of Havona without
the necessity of being ensupernaphimed. The pilgrims of
time are able to equip themselves to traverse "achieved"
space but must depend on the ordained technique to
negotiate "unachieved" space; a pilgrim cannot leave
Havona nor go forward beyond his assigned circuit
without the aid of a transport supernaphim.
14:5.6
There is a refreshing originality about this vast
central creation. Aside from the physical organization
of matter and the fundamental constitution of the basic
orders of intelligent beings and other living things,
there is nothing in common between the worlds of Havona.
Every one of these planets is an original, unique, and
exclusive creation; each planet is a matchless, superb,
and perfect production. And this diversity of
individuality extends to all features of the physical,
intellectual, and spiritual aspects of planetary
existence. Each of these billion perfection spheres has
been developed and embellished in accordance with the
plans of the resident Eternal of Days. And this is just
why no two of them are alike.
14:5.7
Not until you traverse the last of the Havona circuits
and visit the last of the Havona worlds, will the tonic
of adventure and the stimulus of curiosity disappear
from your career. And then will the urge, the forward
impulse of eternity, replace its forerunner, the
adventure lure of time.
14:5.8
Monotony is indicative of immaturity of the creative
imagination and inactivity of intellectual co-ordination
with the spiritual endowment. By the time an ascendant
mortal begins the exploration of these heavenly worlds,
he has already attained emotional, intellectual, and
social, if not spiritual, maturity.
14:5.9
Not only will you find undreamed-of changes confronting
you as you advance from circuit to circuit in Havona,
but your astonishment will be inexpressible as you
progress from planet to planet within each circuit. Each
of these billion study worlds is a veritable university
of surprises. Continuing astonishment, unending wonder,
is the experience of those who traverse these circuits
and tour these gigantic spheres. Monotony is not a part
of the Havona career.
14:5.10
Love of adventure, curiosity, and dread of monotony --
these traits inherent in evolving human nature -- were
not put there just to aggravate and annoy you during
your short sojourn on earth, but rather to suggest to
you that death is only the beginning of an endless
career of adventure, an everlasting life of
anticipation, an eternal voyage of discovery.
14:5.11
Curiosity -- the spirit of investigation, the urge of
discovery, the drive of exploration -- is a part of the
inborn and divine endowment of evolutionary space
creatures. These natural impulses were not given you
merely to be frustrated and repressed. True, these
ambitious urges must frequently be restrained during
your short life on earth, disappointment must be often
experienced, but they are to be fully realized and
gloriously gratified during the long ages to come.
6. THE PURPOSE OF THE CENTRAL UNIVERSE
14:6.1
The range of the activities of seven-circuited Havona is
enormous. In general, they may be described as:
1. Havonal.
2. Paradisiacal.
3. Ascendant-finite -- Supreme-Ultimate evolutional.
14:6.2
Many superfinite activities take place in the Havona of
the present universe age, involving untold diversities
of absonite and other phases of mind and spirit
functions. It is possible that the central universe
serves many purposes which are not revealed to me, as it
functions in numerous ways beyond the comprehension of
the created mind. Nevertheless, I will endeavor to
depict how this perfect creation ministers to the needs
and contributes to the satisfactions of seven orders of
universe intelligence.
14:6.3
1. The Universal
Father -- the First Source and Center. God the
Father derives supreme parental satisfaction from the
perfection of the central creation. He enjoys the
experience of love satiety on near-equality levels. The
perfect Creator is divinely pleased with the adoration
of the perfect creature.
14:6.4
Havona affords the Father supreme achievement
gratification. The perfection realization in Havona
compensates for the time-space delay of the eternal urge
of infinite expansion.
14:6.5
The Father enjoys the Havona reciprocation of the divine
beauty. It satisfies the divine mind to afford a perfect
pattern of exquisite harmony for all evolving universes.
14:6.6
Our Father beholds the central universe with perfect
pleasure because it is a worthy revelation of spirit
reality to all personalities of the universe of
universes.
14:6.7
The God of universes has favorable regard for Havona and
Paradise as the eternal power nucleus for all subsequent
universe expansion in time and space.
14:6.8
The eternal Father views with never-ending satisfaction
the Havona creation as the worthy and alluring goal for
the ascension candidates of time, his mortal
grandchildren of space achieving their Creator-Father's
eternal home. And God takes pleasure in the
Paradise-Havona universe as the eternal home of Deity
and the divine family.
14:6.9
2. The Eternal
Son -- the Second Source and Center. To the Eternal
Son the superb central creation affords eternal proof of
the partnership effectiveness of the divine family --
Father, Son, and Spirit. It is the spiritual and
material basis for absolute confidence in the Universal
Father.
14:6.10
Havona affords the Eternal Son an almost unlimited base
for the ever-expanding realization of spirit power. The
central universe afforded the Eternal Son the arena
wherein he could safely and securely demonstrate the
spirit and technique of the bestowal ministry for the
instruction of his associate Paradise Sons.
14:6.11
Havona is the reality foundation for the Eternal Son's
spirit-gravity control of the universe of universes.
This universe affords the Son the gratification of
parental craving, spiritual reproduction.
14:6.12
The Havona worlds and their perfect inhabitants are the
first and the eternally final demonstration that the Son
is the Word of the Father. Thereby is the consciousness
of the Son as an infinite complement of the Father
perfectly gratified.
14:6.13
And this universe affords the opportunity for the
realization of reciprocation of equality fraternity
between the Universal Father and the Eternal Son, and
this constitutes the everlasting proof of the infinite
personality of each.
14:6.14
3. The Infinite
Spirit -- the Third Source and Center. The Havona
universe affords the Infinite Spirit proof of being the
Conjoint Actor, the infinite representative of the
unified Father-Son. In Havona the Infinite Spirit
derives the combined satisfaction of functioning as a
creative activity while enjoying the satisfaction of
absolute coexistence with this divine achievement.
14:6.15
In Havona the Infinite Spirit found an arena wherein he
could demonstrate the ability and willingness to serve
as a potential mercy minister. In this perfect creation
the Spirit rehearsed for the adventure of ministry in
the evolutionary universes.
14:6.16
This perfect creation afforded the Infinite Spirit
opportunity to participate in universe administration
with both divine parents -- to administer a universe as
associate-Creator offspring, thereby preparing for the
joint administration of the local universes as the
Creative Spirit associates of the Creator Sons.
14:6.17
The Havona worlds are the mind laboratory of the
creators of the cosmic mind and the ministers to every
creature mind in existence. Mind is different on each
Havona world and serves as the pattern for all spiritual
and material creature intellects.
14:6.18
These perfect worlds are the mind graduate schools for
all beings destined for Paradise society. They afforded
the Spirit abundant opportunity to test out the
technique of mind ministry on safe and advisory
personalities.
14:6.19
Havona is a compensation to the Infinite Spirit for his
widespread and unselfish work in the universes of space.
Havona is the perfect home and retreat for the untiring
Mind Minister of time and space.
14:6.20
4. The Supreme
Being -- the evolutionary unification of
experiential Deity. The Havona creation is the eternal
and perfect proof of the spiritual reality of the
Supreme Being. This perfect creation is a revelation of
the perfect and symmetrical spirit nature of God the
Supreme before the beginnings of the power-personality
synthesis of the finite reflections of the Paradise
Deities in the experiential universes of time and space.
14:6.21
In Havona the power potentials of the Almighty are
unified with the spiritual nature of the Supreme. This
central creation is an exemplification of the
future-eternal unity of the Supreme.
14:6.22
Havona is a perfect pattern of the universality
potential of the Supreme. This universe is a finished
portrayal of the future perfection of the Supreme and is
suggestive of the potential of the Ultimate.
14:6.23
Havona exhibits finality of spirit values existing as
living will creatures of supreme and perfect
self-control; mind existing as ultimately equivalent to
spirit; reality and unity of intelligence with an
unlimited potential.
14:6.24
5. The
Co-ordinate Creator Sons. Havona is the educational
training ground where the Paradise Michaels are prepared
for their subsequent adventures in universe creation.
This divine and perfect creation is a pattern for every
Creator Son. He strives to make his own universe
eventually attain to these Paradise-Havona levels of
perfection.
14:6.25
A Creator Son uses the creatures of Havona as
personality-pattern possibilities for his own mortal
children and spirit beings. The Michael and other
Paradise Sons view Paradise and Havona as the divine
destiny of the children of time.
14:6.26
The Creator Sons know that the central creation is the
real source of that indispensable universe overcontrol
which stabilizes and unifies their local universes. They
know that the personal presence of the ever-present
influence of the Supreme and of the Ultimate is in
Havona.
14:6.27
Havona and Paradise are the source of a Michael Son's
creative power. Here dwell the beings who co-operate
with him in universe creation. From Paradise come the
Universe Mother Spirits, the cocreators of local
universes.
14:6.28
The Paradise Sons regard the central creation as the
home of their divine parents -- their home. It is the
place they enjoy returning to ever and anon.
14:6.29
6. The
Co-ordinate Ministering Daughters. The Universe
Mother Spirits, cocreators of the local universes,
secure their prepersonal training on the worlds of
Havona in close association with the Spirits of the
Circuits. In the central universe the Spirit Daughters
of the local universes were duly trained in the methods
of co-operation with the Sons of Paradise, all the while
subject to the will of the Father.
14:6.30
On the worlds of Havona the Spirit and the Daughters of
the Spirit find the mind patterns for all their groups
of spiritual and material intelligences, and this
central universe is the sometime destiny of those
creatures which a Universe Mother Spirit jointly
sponsors with an associated Creator Son.
14:6.31
The Universe Mother Creator remembers Paradise and
Havona as the place of her origin and the home of the
Infinite Mother Spirit, the abode of the personality
presence of the Infinite Mind.
14:6.32
From this central universe also came the bestowal of the
personal prerogatives of creatorship which a Universe
Divine Minister employs as complemental to a Creator Son
in the work of creating living will creatures.
14:6.33
And lastly, since these Daughter Spirits of the Infinite
Mother Spirit will not likely ever return to their
Paradise home, they derive great satisfaction from the
universal reflectivity phenomenon associated with the
Supreme Being in Havona and personalized in Majeston on
Paradise.
14:6.34
7. The
Evolutionary Mortals of the Ascending Career. Havona
is the home of the pattern personality of every mortal
type and the home of all superhuman personalities of
mortal association who are not native to the creations
of time.
14:6.35
These worlds provide the stimulus of all human impulses
towards the attainment of true spirit values on the
highest conceivable reality levels. Havona is the
pre-Paradise training goal of every ascending mortal.
Here mortals attain pre-Paradise Deity -- the Supreme
Being. Havona stands before every will creature as the
portal to Paradise and God attainment.
14:6.36
Paradise is the home, and Havona the workshop and
playground, of the finaliters. And every God-knowing
mortal craves to be a finaliter.
14:6.37
The central universe is not only man's established
destiny, but it is also the starting place of the
eternal career of the finaliters as they shall sometime
be started out on the undisclosed and universal
adventure in the experience of exploring the infinity of
the Universal Father.
14:6.38
Havona will unquestionably continue to function with
absonite significance even in future universe ages which
may witness space pilgrims attempting to find God on
superfinite levels. Havona has capacity to serve as a
training universe for absonite beings. It will probably
be the finishing school when the seven superuniverses
are functioning as the intermediate school for the
graduates of the primary schools of outer space. And we
incline to the opinion that the potentials of eternal
Havona are really unlimited, that the central universe
has eternal capacity to serve as an experiential
training universe for all past, present, or future types
of created beings.
14:6.39
Presented by a Perfector of Wisdom commissioned thus to
function by the Ancients of Days on Uversa.
