Introduction
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
THE Thought Adjusters are the children of the universe career, and indeed the
|
|||
|
virgin Adjusters must gain experience while mortal creatures grow and develop.
|
|||
|
As the personality of the human child expands for the struggles of evolutionary
|
|||
|
existence, so does the Adjuster wax great in the rehearsals of the next stage
|
|||
|
of ascending life. As the child acquires adaptative versatility for his adult
|
|||
|
activities through the social and play life of early childhood, so does the
|
|||
|
indwelling Adjuster achieve skill for the next stage of cosmic life by virtue
|
|||
|
of the preliminary mortal planning and rehearsing of those activities which
|
|||
|
have to do with the morontia career. Human existence constitutes a period of
|
|||
|
practice which is effectively utilized by the Adjuster in preparing for the
|
|||
|
increased responsibilities and the greater opportunities of a future life. But
|
|||
|
the Adjuster's efforts, while living within you, are not so much concerned with
|
|||
|
the affairs of temporal life and planetary existence. Today, the Thought
|
|||
|
Adjusters are, as it were, rehearsing the realities of the universe career in
|
|||
|
the evolving minds of human beings.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1. DEVELOPMENT OF ADJUSTERS
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
There must be a comprehensive and elaborate plan for the training and
|
|||
|
development of virgin Adjusters before they are sent forth from Divinington,
|
|||
|
but we really do not know very much about it. There undoubtedly also exists an
|
|||
|
extensive system for retraining Adjusters of indwelling experience before they
|
|||
|
embark upon new missions of mortal association, but, again, we do not actually
|
|||
|
know.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I have been told by Personalized Adjusters that every time a Monitor-indwelt
|
|||
|
mortal fails of survival, when the Adjuster returns to Divinington, an extended
|
|||
|
course of training is engaged in. This additional training is made possible by
|
|||
|
the experience of having indwelt a human being, and it is always imparted
|
|||
|
before the Adjuster is remanded to the evolutionary worlds of time.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Actual living experience has no cosmic substitute. The perfection of the
|
|||
|
divinity of a newly formed Thought Adjuster does not in any manner endow this
|
|||
|
Mystery Monitor with experienced ministrative ability. Experience is
|
|||
|
inseparable from a living existence; it is the one thing which no amount of
|
|||
|
divine endowment can absolve you from the necessity of securing by actual
|
|||
|
living. Therefore, in common with all beings living and functioning within the
|
|||
|
present sphere of the Supreme, Thought Adjusters must acquire experience; they
|
|||
|
must evolve from the lower, inexperienced, to the higher, more experienced,
|
|||
|
groups.
|
|||
|
|
|||

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Adjusters pass through a definite developmental career in the mortal mind; they
|
|||
|
achieve a reality of attainment which is eternally theirs. They progressively
|
|||
|
acquire Adjuster skill and ability as a result of any and all contacts with the
|
|||
|
material races, regardless of the survival or nonsurvival of their particular
|
|||
|
mortal subjects. They are also equal partners of the human mind in fostering
|
|||
|
the evolution of the immortal soul of survival capacity.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The first stage of Adjuster evolution is attained in fusion with the surviving
|
|||
|
soul of a mortal being. Thus, while you are in nature evolving inward and
|
|||
|
upward from man to God, the Adjusters are in nature evolving outward and
|
|||
|
downward from God to man; and so will the final product of this union of
|
|||
|
divinity and humanity eternally be the son of man and the son of God.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
2. SELF-ACTING ADJUSTERS
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You have been informed of the classification of Adjusters in relation to
|
|||
|
experience--virgin, advanced, and supreme. You should also recognize a certain
|
|||
|
functional classification--the self-acting Adjusters. A self-acting Adjuster is
|
|||
|
one who:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1. Has had certain requisite experience in the evolving life of a will
|
|||
|
creature, either as a temporary indweller on a type of world where Adjusters
|
|||
|
are only loaned to mortal subjects or on an actual fusion planet where the
|
|||
|
human failed of survival. Such a Monitor is either an advanced or a supreme
|
|||
|
Adjuster.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
2. Has acquired the balance of spiritual power in a human who has made the
|
|||
|
third psychic circle and has had assigned to him a personal seraphic guardian.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
3. Has a subject who has made the supreme decision, has entered into a solemn
|
|||
|
and sincere betrothal with the Adjuster. The Adjuster looks beforehand to the
|
|||
|
time of actual fusion and reckons the union as an event of fact.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
4. Has a subject who has been mustered into one of the reserve corps of destiny
|
|||
|
on an evolutionary world of mortal ascension.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
5. At some time, during human sleep, has been temporarily detached from the
|
|||
|
mind of mortal incarceration to perform some exploit of liaison, contact,
|
|||
|
reregistration, or other extrahuman service associated with the spiritual
|
|||
|
administration of the world of assignment.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
6. Has served in a time of crisis in the experience of some human being who was
|
|||
|
the material complement of a spirit personality intrusted with the enactment of
|
|||
|
some cosmic achievement essential to the spiritual economy of the planet.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Self-acting Adjusters seem to possess a marked degree of will in all matters
|
|||
|
not involving the human personalities of their immediate indwelling, as is
|
|||
|
indicated by their numerous exploits both within and without the mortal
|
|||
|
subjects of attachment. Such Adjusters participate in numerous activities of
|
|||
|
the realm, but more frequently they function as undetected indwellers of the
|
|||
|
earthly tabernacles of their own choosing.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Undoubtedly these higher and more experienced types of Adjusters can
|
|||
|
communicate with those in other realms. But while self-acting Adjusters do thus
|
|||
|
intercommunicate, they do so only on the levels of their mutual work and for
|
|||
|
the purpose of preserving custodial data essential to the Adjuster ministry
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
top of page - 1197
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
of the realms of their sojourn, though on occasions they have been known to
|
|||
|
function in interplanetary matters during times of crisis.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Supreme and self-acting Adjusters can leave the human body at will. The
|
|||
|
indwellers are not an organic or biologic part of mortal life; they are divine
|
|||
|
superimpositions thereon. In the original life plans they were provided for,
|
|||
|
but they are not indispensable to material existence. Nevertheless it should be
|
|||
|
recorded that they very rarely, even temporarily, leave their mortal
|
|||
|
tabernacles after they once take up their indwelling.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The superacting Adjusters are those who have achieved the conquest of their
|
|||
|
intrusted tasks and only await the dissolution of the material-life vehicle or
|
|||
|
the translation of the immortal soul.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
3. RELATION OF ADJUSTERS TO MORTAL TYPES
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The character of the detailed work of Mystery Monitors varies in accordance
|
|||
|
with the nature of their assignments, as to whether or not they are liaison or
|
|||
|
fusion Adjusters. Some Adjusters are merely loaned for the temporal lifetimes
|
|||
|
of their subjects; others are bestowed as personality candidates with
|
|||
|
permission for everlasting fusion if their subjects survive. There is also a
|
|||
|
slight variation in their work among the different planetary types as well as
|
|||
|
in different systems and universes. But, on the whole, their labors are
|
|||
|
remarkably uniform, more so than are the duties of any of the created orders of
|
|||
|
celestial beings.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
On certain primitive worlds (the series one group) the Adjuster indwells the
|
|||
|
mind of the creature as an experiential training, chiefly for self-culture and
|
|||
|
progressive development. Virgin Adjusters are usually sent to such worlds
|
|||
|
during the earlier times when primitive men are arriving in the valley of
|
|||
|
decision, but when comparatively few will elect to ascend the moral heights
|
|||
|
beyond the hills of self-mastery and character acquirement to attain the higher
|
|||
|
levels of emerging spirituality. (Many, however, who fail of Adjuster fusion do
|
|||
|
survive as Spirit-fused ascenders.) The Adjusters receive valuable training and
|
|||
|
acquire wonderful experience in transient association with primitive minds, and
|
|||
|
they are able subsequently to utilize this experience for the benefit of
|
|||
|
superior beings on other worlds. Nothing of survival value is ever lost in all
|
|||
|
the wide universe.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
On another type of world (the series two group) the Adjusters are merely loaned
|
|||
|
to mortal beings. Here the Monitors can never attain fusion personality through
|
|||
|
such indwelling, but they do afford great help to their human subjects during
|
|||
|
the mortal lifetime, far more than they are able to give to Urantia mortals.
|
|||
|
The Adjusters are here loaned to the mortal creatures for a single life span as
|
|||
|
patterns for their higher spiritual attainment, temporary helpers in the
|
|||
|
intriguing task of perfecting a survival character. The Adjusters do not return
|
|||
|
after natural death; these surviving mortals attain eternal life through Spirit
|
|||
|
fusion.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
On worlds such as Urantia (the series three group) there is a real betrothal
|
|||
|
with the divine gifts, a life and death engagement. If you survive, there is to
|
|||
|
be an eternal union, an everlasting fusion, the making of man and Adjuster one
|
|||
|
being.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In the three-brained mortals of this series of worlds, the Adjusters are able
|
|||
|
to gain far more actual contact with their subjects during the temporal life
|
|||
|
than in the one- and two-brained types. But in the career after death, the
|
|||
|
three-brained type proceed just as do the one-brained type and the two-brained
|
|||
|
peoples--the Urantia races.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
top of page - 1198
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
On the two-brain worlds, subsequent to the sojourn of a Paradise bestowal Son,
|
|||
|
virgin Adjusters are seldom assigned to persons who have unquestioned capacity
|
|||
|
for survival. It is our belief that on such worlds practically all Adjusters
|
|||
|
indwelling intelligent men and women of survival capacity belong to the
|
|||
|
advanced or to the supreme type.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In many of the early evolutionary races of Urantia, three groups of beings
|
|||
|
existed. There were those who were so animalistic that they were utterly
|
|||
|
lacking in Adjuster capacity. There were those who exhibited undoubted capacity
|
|||
|
for Adjusters and promptly received them when the age of moral responsibility
|
|||
|
was attained. There was a third class who occupied a borderline position; they
|
|||
|
had capacity for Adjuster reception, but the Monitors could only indwell the
|
|||
|
mind on the personal petition of the individual.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
But with those beings who are virtually disqualified for survival by
|
|||
|
disinheritance through the agency of unfit and inferior ancestors, many a
|
|||
|
virgin Adjuster has served a valuable preliminary experience in contacting
|
|||
|
evolutionary mind and thus has become better qualified for a subsequent
|
|||
|
assignment to a higher type of mind on some other world.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
4. ADJUSTERS AND HUMAN PERSONALITY
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The higher forms of intelligent intercommunication between human beings are
|
|||
|
greatly helped by the indwelling Adjusters. Animals do have fellow feelings,
|
|||
|
but they do not communicate concepts to each other; they can express emotions
|
|||
|
but not ideas and ideals. Neither do men of animal origin experience a high
|
|||
|
type of intellectual intercourse or spiritual communion with their fellows
|
|||
|
until the Thought Adjusters have been bestowed, albeit, when such evolutionary
|
|||
|
creatures develop speech, they are on the highroad to receiving Adjusters.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Animals do, in a crude way, communicate with each other, but there is little or
|
|||
|
no personality in such primitive contact. Adjusters are not personality; they
|
|||
|
are prepersonal beings. But they do hail from the source of personality, and
|
|||
|
their presence does augment the qualitative manifestations of human
|
|||
|
personality; especially is this true if the Adjuster has had previous
|
|||
|
experience.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The type of Adjuster has much to do with the potential for expression of the
|
|||
|
human personality. On down through the ages, many of the great intellectual and
|
|||
|
spiritual leaders of Urantia have exerted their influence chiefly because of
|
|||
|
the superiority and previous experience of their indwelling Adjusters.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The indwelling Adjusters have in no small measure co-operated with other
|
|||
|
spiritual influences in transforming and humanizing the descendants of the
|
|||
|
primitive men of olden ages. If the Adjusters indwelling the minds of the
|
|||
|
inhabitants of Urantia were to be withdrawn, the world would slowly return to
|
|||
|
many of the scenes and practices of the men of primitive times; the divine
|
|||
|
Monitors are one of the real potentials of advancing civilization.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I have observed a Thought Adjuster indwelling a mind on Urantia who has,
|
|||
|
according to the records on Uversa, indwelt fifteen minds previously in
|
|||
|
Orvonton. We do not know whether this Monitor has had similar experiences in
|
|||
|
other superuniverses, but I suspect so. This is a marvelous Adjuster and one of
|
|||
|
the most useful and potent forces on Urantia during this present age. What
|
|||
|
others have lost, in that they refused to survive, this human being (and your
|
|||
|
whole
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
top of page - 1199
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
world) now gains. From him who has not survival qualities, shall be taken away
|
|||
|
even that experienced Adjuster which he now has, while to him who has survival
|
|||
|
prospects, shall be given even the pre-experienced Adjuster of a slothful
|
|||
|
deserter.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In a sense the Adjusters may be fostering a certain degree of planetary
|
|||
|
cross-fertilization in the domains of truth, beauty, and goodness. But they are
|
|||
|
seldom given two indwelling experiences on the same planet; there is no
|
|||
|
Adjuster now serving on Urantia who has been on this world previously. I know
|
|||
|
whereof I speak since we have their numbers and records in the archives of
|
|||
|
Uversa.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
5. MATERIAL HANDICAPS TO ADJUSTER INDWELLING
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Supreme and self-acting Adjusters are often able to contribute factors of
|
|||
|
spiritual import to the human mind when it flows freely in the liberated but
|
|||
|
controlled channels of creative imagination. At such times, and sometimes
|
|||
|
during sleep, the Adjuster is able to arrest the mental currents, to stay the
|
|||
|
flow, and then to divert the idea procession; and all this is done in order to
|
|||
|
effect deep spiritual transformations in the higher recesses of the
|
|||
|
superconsciousness. Thus are the forces and energies of mind more fully
|
|||
|
adjusted to the key of the contactual tones of the spiritual level of the
|
|||
|
present and the future.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
It is sometimes possible to have the mind illuminated, to hear the divine voice
|
|||
|
that continually speaks within you, so that you may become partially conscious
|
|||
|
of the wisdom, truth, goodness, and beauty of the potential personality
|
|||
|
constantly indwelling you.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
But your unsteady and rapidly shifting mental attitudes often result in
|
|||
|
thwarting the plans and interrupting the work of the Adjusters. Their work is
|
|||
|
not only interfered with by the innate natures of the mortal races, but this
|
|||
|
ministry is also greatly retarded by your own preconceived opinions, settled
|
|||
|
ideas, and long-standing prejudices. Because of these handicaps, many times
|
|||
|
only their unfinished creations emerge into consciousness, and confusion of
|
|||
|
concept is inevitable. Therefore, in scrutinizing mental situations, safety
|
|||
|
lies only in the prompt recognition of each and every thought and experience
|
|||
|
for just what it actually and fundamentally is, disregarding entirely what it
|
|||
|
might have been.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The great problem of life is the adjustment of the ancestral tendencies of
|
|||
|
living to the demands of the spiritual urges initiated by the divine presence
|
|||
|
of the Mystery Monitor. While in the universe and superuniverse careers no man
|
|||
|
can serve two masters, in the life you now live on Urantia every man must
|
|||
|
perforce serve two masters. He must become adept in the art of a continuous
|
|||
|
human temporal compromise while he yields spiritual allegiance to but one
|
|||
|
master; and this is why so many falter and fail, grow weary and succumb to the
|
|||
|
stress of the evolutionary struggle.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
While the hereditary legacy of cerebral endowment and that of electrochemical
|
|||
|
overcontrol both operate to delimit the sphere of efficient Adjuster activity,
|
|||
|
no hereditary handicap (in normal minds) ever prevents eventual spiritual
|
|||
|
achievement. Heredity may interfere with the rate of personality conquest, but
|
|||
|
it does not prevent eventual consummation of the ascendant adventure. If you
|
|||
|
will co-operate with your Adjuster, the divine gift will, sooner or later,
|
|||
|
evolve the immortal morontia soul and, subsequent to fusion therewith, will
|
|||
|
present the new creature to the sovereign Master Son of the local universe and
|
|||
|
eventually to the Father of Adjusters on Paradise.

6. THE PERSISTENCE OF TRUE VALUES
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Adjusters never fail; nothing worth surviving is ever lost; every meaningful
|
|||
|
value in every will creature is certain of survival, irrespective of the
|
|||
|
survival or nonsurvival of the meaning-discovering or evaluating personality.
|
|||
|
And so it is, a mortal creature may reject survival; still the life experience
|
|||
|
is not wasted; the eternal Adjuster carries the worth-while features of such an
|
|||
|
apparent life of failure over into some other world and there bestows these
|
|||
|
surviving meanings and values upon some higher type of mortal mind, one of
|
|||
|
survival capacity. No worth-while experience ever happens in vain; no true
|
|||
|
meaning or real value ever perishes.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
As related to fusion candidates, if a Mystery Monitor is deserted by the mortal
|
|||
|
associate, if the human partner declines to pursue the ascending career, when
|
|||
|
released by natural death (or prior thereto), the Adjuster carries away
|
|||
|
everything of survival value which has evolved in the mind of that nonsurviving
|
|||
|
creature. If an Adjuster should repeatedly fail to attain fusion personality
|
|||
|
because of the nonsurvival of successive human subjects, and if this Monitor
|
|||
|
should subsequently be personalized, all the acquired experience of having
|
|||
|
indwelt and mastered all these mortal minds would become the actual possession
|
|||
|
of such a newly Personalized Adjuster, an endowment to be enjoyed and utilized
|
|||
|
throughout all future ages. A Personalized Adjuster of this order is a
|
|||
|
composite assembly of all the survival traits of all his former creature hosts.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When Adjusters of long universe experience volunteer to indwell divine Sons on
|
|||
|
bestowal missions, they full well know that personality attainment can never be
|
|||
|
achieved through this service. But often does the Father of spirits grant
|
|||
|
personality to these volunteers and establish them as directors of their kind.
|
|||
|
These are the personalities honored with authority on Divinington. And their
|
|||
|
unique natures embody the mosaic humanity of their multiple experiences of
|
|||
|
mortal indwelling and also the spirit transcript of the human divinity of the
|
|||
|
Paradise bestowal Son of the terminal indwelling experience.
|
|||
|
|
|||

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The activities of Adjusters in your local universe are directed by the
|
|||
|
Personalized Adjuster of Michael of Nebadon, that very Monitor who guided him
|
|||
|
step by step when he lived his human life in the flesh of Joshua ben Joseph.
|
|||
|
Faithful to his trust was this extraordinary Adjuster, and wisely did this
|
|||
|
valiant Monitor direct the human nature, ever guiding the mortal mind of the
|
|||
|
Paradise Son in the choosing of the path of the Father's perfect will. This
|
|||
|
Adjuster had previously served with Machiventa Melchizedek in the days of
|
|||
|
Abraham and had engaged in tremendous exploits both previous to this indwelling
|
|||
|
and between these bestowal experiences.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This Adjuster did indeed triumph in Jesus' human mind--that mind which in each
|
|||
|
of life's recurring situations maintained a consecrated dedication to the
|
|||
|
Father's will, saying, "Not my will, but yours, be done." Such decisive
|
|||
|
consecration constitutes the true passport from the limitations of human nature
|
|||
|
to the finality of divine attainment.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This same Adjuster now reflects in the inscrutable nature of his mighty
|
|||
|
personality the prebaptismal humanity of Joshua ben Joseph, the eternal and
|
|||
|
living transcript of the eternal and living values which the greatest of all
|
|||
|
Urantians created out of the humble circumstances of a commonplace life as it
|
|||
|
was lived to the complete exhaustion of the spiritual values attainable in
|
|||
|
mortal experience.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Everything of permanent value which is intrusted to an Adjuster is assured
|
|||
|
eternal survival. In certain instances the Monitor holds these possessions for
|
|||
|
bestowal on a mortal mind of future indwelling; in others, and upon
|
|||
|
personalization, these surviving and conserved realities are held in trust for
|
|||
|
future utilization in the service of the Architects of the Master Universe.
|
|||
|

|
7. DESTINY OF PERSONALIZED ADJUSTERS
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
We cannot state whether or not non-Adjuster Father fragments are
|
|||
|
personalizable, but you have been informed that personality is the sovereign
|
|||
|
freewill bestowal of the Universal Father. As far as we know, the Adjuster type
|
|||
|
of Father fragment attains personality only by the acquirement of personal
|
|||
|
attributes through service-ministry to a personal being. These Personalized
|
|||
|
Adjusters are at home on Divinington, where they instruct and direct their
|
|||
|
prepersonal associates.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Personalized Thought Adjusters are the untrammeled, unassigned, and sovereign
|
|||
|
stabilizers and compensators of the far-flung universe of universes. They
|
|||
|
combine the Creator and creature experience--existential and experiential. They
|
|||
|
are conjoint time and eternity beings. They associate the prepersonal and the
|
|||
|
personal in universe administration.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Personalized Adjusters are the all-wise and powerful executives of the
|
|||
|
Architects of the Master Universe. They are the personal agents of the full
|
|||
|
ministry of the Universal Father--personal, prepersonal, and superpersonal.
|
|||
|
They are the personal ministers of the extraordinary, the unusual, and the
|
|||
|
unexpected throughout all the realms of the transcendental absonite spheres of
|
|||
|
the domain of God the Ultimate, even to the levels of God the Absolute.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
They are the exclusive beings of the universes who embrace within their being
|
|||
|
all the known relationships of personality; they are omnipersonal--they are
|
|||
|
before personality, they are personality, and they are after personality. They
|
|||
|
minister the personality of the Universal Father as in the eternal past, the
|
|||
|
eternal present, and the eternal future.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Existential personality on the order of the infinite and absolute, the Father
|
|||
|
bestowed upon the Eternal Son, but he chose to reserve for his own ministry the
|
|||
|
experiential personality of the type of the Personalized Adjuster bestowed upon
|
|||
|
the existential prepersonal Adjuster; and they are thus both destined to the
|
|||
|
future eternal superpersonality of the transcendental ministry of the absonite
|
|||
|
realms of the Ultimate, the Supreme-Ultimate, even to the levels of the
|
|||
|
Ultimate-Absolute.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Seldom are the Personalized Adjusters seen at large in the universes.
|
|||
|
Occasionally they consult with the Ancients of Days, and sometimes the
|
|||
|
Personalized Adjusters of the sevenfold Creator Sons come to the headquarters
|
|||
|
worlds of the constellations to confer with the Vorondadek rulers.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When the planetary Vorondadek observer of Urantia--the Most High custodian who
|
|||
|
not long since assumed an emergency regency of your world--asserted his
|
|||
|
authority in the presence of the resident governor general, he began his
|
|||
|
emergency administration of Urantia with a full staff of his own choosing. He
|
|||
|
immediately assigned to all his associates and assistants their planetary
|
|||
|
duties. But he did not choose the three Personalized Adjusters who appeared in
|
|||
|
his presence the instant he assumed the regency. He did not even know they
|
|||
|
would
|
|||
|
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
thus appear, for they did not so manifest their divine presence at the time of
|
|||
|
a previous regency. And the Most High regent did not assign service or
|
|||
|
designate duties for these volunteer Personalized Adjusters. Nevertheless,
|
|||
|
these three omnipersonal beings were among the most active of the numerous
|
|||
|
orders of celestial beings then serving on Urantia.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Personalized Adjusters perform a wide range of services for numerous orders of
|
|||
|
universe personalities, but we are not permitted to discuss these ministries
|
|||
|
with Adjuster-indwelt evolutionary creatures. These extraordinary human
|
|||
|
divinities are among the most remarkable personalities of the entire grand
|
|||
|
universe, and no one dares to predict what their future missions may be.
