A SYNOPSIS OF PAPER 48: THE MORONTIA LIFE
The only possible method by which mortals can transform from material beings into
perfected spirits is through the transition of morontia life.
Morontia materialization is a union of material and spiritual energies made possible
by the Morontia Power Supervisors, who provide each ascender with five hundred
and seventy consecutive morontia bodies.
The Power Supervisors work in close association with both the physical controllers
and the seraphim. Millions of Morontia Power Supervisors coordinate the physical
and spiritual energy that flows into the morontia realms.
Morontia Companions serve ascenders as companions, hosts, instructors, translators,
excursion supervisors, and custodians.
Reversion Directors volunteer to help mortals rest their minds through humor. They
assist ascenders in reverting memories to a former state of being by creating
reminiscent jests. Reversion directors also promote the unimportance of personal
anxiety and the satisfaction that all things work together for good.
Billions of Mansion World Teachers are recruited from the ranks of cherubim and
sanobim who have completed their work as assistants to guardian seraphim. Teachers
usually work in pairs in the schools of things, feelings, doing, ethics, administration,
social adjustment, philosophy, divinity, and spirituality.
Transition Ministers are seraphim devoted to facilitating the transition from life in
the flesh to existence on the seven mansion worlds. Since the morontia life begins
at the conception of the soul, Transition Ministers begin their work on the
evolutionary worlds. Transition Ministers proclaim the gospel of eternal progression
and perfection attainment. They counsel human teachers about truth, righteousness,
and the goodness of God. The Transition Ministers are psychologists, counselors,
philosophers, instructors and recorders. From these seraphim, ascenders learn to let
pressure develop into stability; to be faithful, earnest, and cheerful; to accept
challenges without complaint and difficulties without fear.
There is a divine purpose in the morontia scheme of extensive training for ascending
creatures. Passage through this life will be joyous, but it also has a practical
objective; the goal of transcendent service in the universes.
The entire universe is a vast training school through which mortals are piloted, one
by one, to their destiny as Paradise finaliters in service to new universes in the
making.

LIFE ON THE MANSION WORLDS AND JERUSEM
A Study presented at Urantia Brotherhood Summer Study Session
by Marian Rowley
Saturday morning, August 7th, 1965
INTRODUCTION
The theme of this whole series of meetings is “The Morontia Life”; so first in
order are some definitions of the term “morontia”.
“Morontia” is a term designating a vast level intervening between the material
and the spiritual. It may designate personal or impersonal realities, living or nonliving energies. The warp of morontia is spiritual; its woof is physical.”
(Foreword, Page 9.)
“Unquestionably, when we encounter the functional activities of the various
Morontia Power Supervisors, we are face to face with certain of the unrevealed
activities of the Master Spirits. Who, aside from these ancestors of both physical
controllers and spirit ministers, could have contrived so to combine and associate
material and spiritual energies as to produce a hitherto nonexistent phase of
universe reality – morontia substance and morontia mind?”
“Much of the reality of the spiritual worlds is of the morontia order, a phase of
universe reality wholly unknown on Urantia. The goal of personality existence
is spiritual, but the morontia creations always intervene, bridging the gulf
between the material realms of mortal origin and the superuniverse spheres of
advancing spiritual status. It is in this realm that the Master Spirits make their
great contribution to the plan of man’s Paradise ascension.” (Page 189)
“Mortal death is a technique of escape from the material life in the flesh; and the
mansonia experience of progressive life through seven worlds of corrective
training and cultural education represents the introduction of mortal survivors to
the morontia career, the transition life which intervenes between the evolutionary
material existence and the higher spirit attainment of the ascenders of time who
are destined to achieve the portals of eternity.” (Page 540)
“The Gods cannot – at least they do not – transform a creature of gross animal
nature into a perfected spirit by some mysterious act of creative magic. When the
Creators desire to produce perfect beings, they do so by direct and original
creation, but they never undertake to convert animal-origin and material creatures
into beings of perfection in a single step.”
“The morontia life, extending as it does over the various stages of the local
universe career, is the only possible approach whereby material mortals could
attain the threshold of the spirit world. What magic could death, the natural
dissolution of the material body, hold that such a simple step should instantly
transform the mortal and material mind into an immortal and perfected spirit?
Such beliefs are but ignorant superstitions and pleasing fables.”
“Always this morontia transition intervenes between the mortal estate and the
subsequent spirit status of surviving human beings…”
:The morontia realms are the local universe liaison spheres between the material
and spiritual levels of creature existence…”
“The morontia spheres are the transition phases of mortal ascension through the
progression worlds of the local universe. Only the seven worlds surrounding the
finaliters’ sphere of the local systems are called mansion worlds, but all fifty-six
of the system transition abodes, in common with the higher spheres around the
constellations and the universe headquarters, are called morontia worlds. These
creations partake of the physical beauty and the morontia grandeur of the local
universe headquarters spheres.” (Page 541)
“The narrative of human ascent from the mortal spheres of time to the divine
realms of eternity constitutes an intriguing recital not included in my assignment
(spoken by a Mighty Messenger), but this supernal adventure should be the
supreme study of mortal man.” (Page 449)
NOTE: The following outline of our possible life on the mansion worlds is based
on the facts given in The Urantia Book and page numbers are given as references
for the material used. In a few cases some speculation is ventured, but it always
has some logical foundation in the book.
