Paper 37 – Personalities of the Local Universe

Episode Summary:

A local universe is populated with an immense number of diverse types of beings. “Preceding papers have dealt with the created orders of beings; succeeding narratives will portray the ministering spirits and the ascending orders of beings. This paper is chiefly concerned with an intervening group, the Universe Aids, but it will also give brief consideration to certain of the higher spirits stationed in Nebadon and to certain of the orders of permanent citizenship in the local universe.”

What is Urantia21?

The original text of The Urantia Book was created in the style of the early 20th century. Now, a century later, writing styles and social attitudes have evolved to new levels. Urantia21 is an attempt to restate the magnificent teachings of The Urantia Book in keeping with those contemporary protocols. This restatement primarily addresses two major themes: First, while the original text uses gender-specific nouns and pronouns throughout, Urantia21 has been developed using gender neutral language. This is particularly important when referring to spiritual beings, to whom material sex-based gender is not applicable. The second theme has to do with titles for the First Source and Center of all reality. Urantia21 has utilized titles which are not based in any particular religious tradition, except where a named tradition is being described. The written text of these recordings can be found at urantia21.online, and the original text of The Urantia Book is available free on numerous websites.
