On Urantia you pass through a short and intense test during your initial life of material existence. On the mansion worlds and up through your system, constellation, and local universe, you traverse the morontia phases of ascension. On the training worlds of the superuniverse you pass through the true spirit stages of progression and are prepared for eventual transit to Havona. On the seven circuits of Havona your attainment is intellectual, spiritual, and experiential. And there is a definite task to be achieved on each of the worlds of each of these circuits.
Quote from The URANTIA Book, 0158:04-05
Life on the divine worlds of the central universe is so rich and full, so complete and replete, that it wholly transcends the human concept of anything a created being could possibly experience. The social and economic activities of this eternal creation are entirely dissimilar to the occupations of material creatures living on evolutionary worlds like Urantia. Even the technique of Havona thought is unlike the process of thinking on Urantia.
The above statement by a Perfector of Wisdom comprises the first two paragraphs of the section entitled “Life in Havona” (0158:00). You will remember Havona is our central universe, and consists of one billion perfect eternal worlds, each one of which we must master before gaining the portals to Paradise. Which is no reason to be faint of heart! Our Perfector of Wisdom assures us: “Each of these billion study worlds is a veritable university of surprises. Continuing astonishment, unending wonder, is the experience of those who traverse these circuits and tour these gigantic spheres. Monotony is not a part of the Havona career” (0159:05).
The Perfectors of Wisdom are associates and equals of the Divine Counselors and the Universal Censors. These three high orders of celestial personality are co-ordinate Trinity-origin beings, and are of completed numbers. The Perfectors of Wisdom, who are the least numerous, serve only in the superuniverses, whereas there is one Universal Censor commissioned on each of the one billion worlds of Havona. These three orders of celestial personality “constitute the highest orders of beings who may and do engage in the work of revealing truth to the individual planets and systems, whether in their earlier epochs or when settled in light and life” (0216:04).
Not to leave you hanging in suspense over this idea of “light and life”: “The age of light and life is the final evolutionary attainment of a world of time and space” (0621:01). Given our apparent disorder, even the first stage of light and life has always seemed far distant. But time is accelerating. We shall see.
To return to our Perfectors of Wisdom, we are never told that they have ever served as “unperceived personal-liaison associates” (0865:06) of any mortal. The secondary midwayers serve in this capacity for “those men and women who constitute the planetary reserve corps of destiny” (0865:06, quoted to introduce Part 13). Now, we understand the Perfectors of Wisdom will serve in this capacity to support the mortal bestowals of their associates, the Divine Counselors and the Universal Censors.
A new function for Perfectors of Wisdom, a New Dispensation of God the Supreme.
