The Cosmic Citizen

This week we continue with our study of Uranita Paper 11, The Eternal Isle of Paradise, as we explore the absolute but material Isle of Paradise with Sections 2 & 3, The Nature of the Eternal Isle and Upper Paradise. Since you are beginning to glimpse the enormousness of the material universe discernible even from your astronomical location, your space position in the starry systems, it should become evident to you that such a tremendous material universe must have an adequate and worthy capital, a headquarters commensurate with the dignity and infinitude of the universal Ruler of all this vast and far-flung creation of material realms and living beings. (119.3) 11:2.2 In form Paradise differs from the inhabited space bodies: it is not spherical. It is definitely ellipsoid, being one-sixth longer in the north-south diameter than in the east-west diameter. The central Isle is essentially flat, and the distance from the upper surface to the nether surface is one tenth that of the east-west diameter. 11:2.1–2 (119.2–3) Please join us for another thrilling journey to Paradise, as described in The Urantia Book!
