The Siwalik Hills are the foothills of the Himalayas. But because The Urantia Book was written in 1935, before the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947, the hills referenced here are actually in northern Pakistan. The Badonan occupied the foothills of the NW Indian (Pakistan) highlands (64:3.1) to the west of these hills, as...

Sleeping survivors are those mortals who have died but were unable to attain the level of intelligence mastery and endowment of spirituality that would entitle them to personal guardians. Therefore, they could not be resurrected immediately on the mansion worlds. Such surviving souls must rest in unconscious sleep until the judgment day of a new...

Solitarington is one of seven sacred spheres of the Father circuiting Paradise. It is the "bosom of the Father and the Spirit," and the home of the Solitary Messengers and other personalities of the superangelic orders.

Solitary Messengers are the personal corps of the Infinite Spirit and the first and senior order of the Higher Personalities of the Infinite Spirit. They work alone, traveling throughout the master universe from Paradise to the outer space levels at velocities 4.5 million times the speed of light. They are also explorers, ambassadors, and revelators.

Sonarington is one of the seven sacred spheres of the Father circuiting Paradise. It is the personal receiving world of the Eternal Son as well as the Paradise headquarters of all the descending and ascending Sons of God (but not ascending pilgrims such as mortals or angels). Its secrets include the method of incarnation of...

Son-Fused Mortals are Adjuster-fusion candidates who fail to fuse with their Adjusters, even though not guilty of any cause for this failure.

They are generally confined to their superuniverse, although some reach...

The term Sons of God (with a capitalized Son) is more often used to refer to the Creator Sons (who create local universes) or to the Paradise Sons in general. But it is also used in reference to Trinitized Sons and the Local Universe Sons.

The human soul is an experiential acquirement. Choosing to do the will of God (moral choice) gives birth to the soul, which is the beginning of the morontia self, or spiritual self. The soul is that part of a mortal life that survives death, along with the personality. See Nature of the Soul and The...

The master universe has successive space levels, ranging outward from Havona to the superuniverses and far beyond to the four outer space levels. The seven superuniverses are one space level (the first post-Havona level). Space levels are separated by quiet space zones. A space level thus functions as an elliptical region of motion surrounded on...

The space potency of the Unqualified Absolute is ancestral to all manifestations of force-energy and the organization of power—it is a nonspiritual pre-reality. It is transmuted by the Master Force Organizers into the pre-energy forms of cosmic force (primordial force). This force is then further transformed and controlled by the Universe Power Directors as electronic...
