P.275 - §1 For every
Havona Servital created, seven Universal Conciliators are brought into being,
one in each superuniverse. This creative enactment involves a definite superuniverse
technique of reflective response to transactions taking place on Paradise. |
 |
P.275 - §2 On the headquarters worlds of the seven
superuniverses there function the seven reflections of the Seven Master
Spirits. It is difficult to undertake to portray the natures of these Reflective
Spirits to material minds. They are true personalities; still each member
of a superuniverse group is perfectly reflective of just one of the Seven
Master Spirits. And every time the Master Spirits associate themselves with
the power directors for the purpose of creating a group of Havona Servitals,
there is a simultaneous focalization upon one of the Reflective Spirits
in each of the superuniverse groups, and forthwith and full-fledgedly an
equal number of Universal Conciliators appear on the headquarters worlds
of the supercreations. If, in the creation of servitals, Master Spirit Number
Seven should take the initiative, none but the Reflective Spirits of the
seventh order would become pregnant with conciliators; and concurrently
with the creation of one thousand Orvontonlike servitals, one thousand of
the seventh-order conciliators would appear on each superuniverse capital.
Out of these episodes, reflecting the sevenfold nature of the Master Spirits,
arise the seven created orders of conciliators serving in each superuniverse. |

P.275 - §6 1. The Judge-Arbiter. The one unanimously
designated by the other three as the most competent and best qualified to
act as judicial head of the group.
P.275 - §7 2. The Spirit-Advocate. The one appointed by the judge-arbiter
to present evidence and to safeguard the rights of all personalities involved
in any matter assigned to the adjudication of the conciliating commission.
P.276 - §1 3. The Divine Executioner. The conciliator qualified
by inherent nature to make contact with the material beings of the realms
and to execute the decisions of the commission. Divine executioners, being
fourth creatures--quasi-material beings--are almost, but not quite, visible
to the short-range vision of the mortal races.
P.276 - §2 4. The Recorder. The remaining member of the commission
automatically becomes the recorder, the clerk of the tribunal. He makes
certain that all records are properly prepared for the archives of the
superuniverse and for the records of the local universe. If the commission
is serving on an evolutionary world, a third report, with the assistance
of the executioner, is prepared for the physical records of the system
government of jurisdiction.
P.276 - §3 When in session a commission functions as a group of
three since the advocate is detached during adjudication and participates
in the formulation of the verdict only at the conclusion of the hearing.
Hence these commissions are sometimes called referee trios.
|
 |
P.276 - §8 1. Conciliators to the Worlds. Whenever
the supervising personalities of the individual worlds become greatly
perplexed or actually deadlocked concerning the proper procedure under
existing circumstances, and if the matter is not of sufficient importance
to be brought before the regularly constituted tribunals of the realm,
then, upon the receipt of a petition of two personalities, one from each
contention, a conciliating commission will begin to function forthwith.
[In these diagrams, the color of the conciliators depend
on that of their mother Reflective Spirit, and not on the level to which
they are advanced.] |
 |
P.277 - §3 2. Conciliators to the System Headquarters.
From service on the evolutionary worlds these commissions of four are advanced
to duty on a system headquarters. Here they have much work to do, and they
prove to be the understanding friends of men, angels, and other spirit beings.
The referee trios are not so much concerned with personal differences as
with group contentions and with misunderstandings arising between different
orders of creatures; and on a system headquarters there live both spiritual
and material beings, as well as the combined types, such as the Material
Sons. |
 |
P.277 - §5 3. The Constellation Conciliators. From
service in the systems the conciliators are promoted to the adjudication
of the problems of a constellation, taking up the minor difficulties arising
between its one hundred systems of inhabited worlds. Not many problems developing
on the constellation headquarters fall under their jurisdiction, but they
are kept busy going from system to system gathering evidence and preparing
preliminary statements. If the contention is honest, if the difficulties
arise out of sincere differences of opinion and honest diversity of viewpoints,
no matter how few persons may be involved, no matter how apparently trivial
the misunderstanding, a conciliating commission can always be had to pass
upon the merits of the controversy. |
 |
P.277 - §6 4. Conciliators to the Local Universes.
In this larger work of a universe the commissioners are of great assistance
to both the Melchizedeks and the Magisterial
P.278 - §0 Sons and to the constellation rulers and the hosts of personalities
concerned with the co-ordination and administration of the one hundred constellations.
The different orders of seraphim and other residents of the headquarters
spheres of a local universe also avail themselves of the help and decisions
of the referee trios. |
 |
P.278 - §2 5. Conciliators to the Superuniverse Minor
Sectors. From the problems of local universes the commissioners are advanced
to the study of questions arising in the minor sectors of their superuniverse.
The farther they ascend inward from the individual planets, the fewer are
the material duties of the divine executioner; gradually he assumes a new
role of mercy-justice interpreter, at the same time--being quasi-material--keeping
the commission as a whole in sympathetic touch with the material aspects
of its investigations. |
 |
P.278 - §3 6. Conciliators to the Superuniverse Major
Sectors. The character of the work of the commissioners continues to change
as they advance. There is less and less of misunderstanding to adjudicate
and more and more of mysterious phenomena to explain and interpret. From
stage to stage they are evolving from arbiters of differences to explainers
of mysteries--judges evolving into interpretative teachers. Arbiters of
those who through ignorance permit difficulties and misunderstandings to
arise, they once were; but they are now becoming instructors of those who
are sufficiently intelligent and tolerant to avoid clashes of mind and wars
of opinions. The higher a creature's education, the more respect he has
for the knowledge, experience, and opinions of others. |
 |
P.278 - §4 7. Conciliators to the Superuniverse. Here
the conciliators become co-ordinate--four mutually understood and perfectly
functioning arbiter-teachers. The divine executioner is divested of retributive
power and becomes the physical voice of the spirit trio. By this time these
counselors and teachers have become expertly familiar with most of the actual
problems and difficulties encountered in the conduct of superuniverse affairs.
Thus they become wonderful advisers and wise teachers of the ascending pilgrims
who are in residence on the educational spheres surrounding the headquarters
worlds of the superuniverses. |
