The Sacred Spheres of Paradise

BETWEEN the central Isle of Paradise and the innermost of the Havona planetary circuits there are situated in space three lesser circuits of special spheres. The innermost circuit consists of the seven secret spheres of the Universal Father; the second group is comprised of seven luminous worlds of the Eternal Son; in the outermost are the seven immense spheres of the Infinite Spirit, the worlds of the executive headquarters of the Seven Master Spirits.

 These three circuits of seven worlds of the Father, the Son and the Spirit are spheres of unexcelled grandeur and unimagined glory. Even their material or physical construction is of an order unrevealed to you. Each circuit is different materials, and each world of each circuit is different excepting the seven worlds of the Son, which are of equal physical constitution. The twenty-one are enormous spheres, and each group of seven is differently eternalized. As far as we know these areas have always been; like Paradise they are eternal. there is neither record nor tradition of their origin.

 The seven secret spheres of the Universal Father, circulating about Paradise in close proximity to the eternal Isle, are highly reflective of the spiritual luminosity of the central shining of the eternal Deities, shedding this light of divine glory throughout Paradise and even on seven circles of Havona.

 In the seven sacred worlds of the Eternal Son seem to originate the impersonal energies of spirit luminosity. No personal being may sojourn on any of these seven shining realms. With spiritual glory they illuminate all Paradise and Havona, and direct pure spirit luminosity to the seven superuniverses. Moreover, these brilliant spheres of the second circuit emit their light (light without heat) to Paradise and the seven circuits with its billion worlds of the central universe.

The Seven Master Spirits, who preside over the destinies of the seven superuniverses, occupy the seven worlds of the Infinite Spirit sending spiritual illumination of the Third Person of Deity to these creations of time and space. And all Havona, but not the Isle of Paradise, is bathed in these spiritualizing influences.

 Although the worlds of the Father are ultimate status spheres for all Father-endowed personalities, this is not their exclusive function. Many beings and entities other than personal inhabit these worlds. Each world in the circuit of the Father and the circuit of the Spirit has a distinct type of permanent citizenship, but we think uniforms different types of personal beings inhabit the worlds of the Son. Father fragments among the natives of Divinington are; other orders of permanent citizenship you are not disclosed.

The twenty -one Paradise satellites serve many purposes in both the central universe and the superuniverse, which are not disclosed in these narratives. So there is little that can understand the life of these spheres that you can not expect to achieve a uniform view of them, either as to nature or function; thousands of activities are there that you are not disclosed. These twenty -one spheres embrace the potentials  of the function of the master universe. These documents provide only a quick glimpse of certain circumscribed activities pertaining to the present universe age of the grand universe; rather, one of the seven sectors of the grand universe.
