The August Commandment of the Universal Father
"Be you perfect even as I am perfect."
This is the commandment that spans uncountable ages of evolutionary growth for humans.
"Perfect" refers to oneness of thought, i.e. without any differentiation, actual singularity, unity.
It is the potential of mortals to grow from non-living particles of energy to matter, to initial life forms, to human personalities, to the occupation of the mind by a fragment of the Universal Father, the Thought Adjuster, acquisition of a soul, with growth through the levels of the Adjutant Mind Spirits,* through death to morontial forms (midway between mortal and spiritual) with ever-increasing intellects. to spiritual forms and ever-advancing progression towards the perfection commanded by the Universal Father.
*Seven Adjutant Mind Spirits - These mind-spirits are similar in character but diverse in power. The seven adjutants have been given the following names: the spirit of wisdom, the spirit of worship, the spirit of counsel, the spirit of knowledge, the spirit of courage, the spirit of understanding, the spirit of intuition — of quick perception. After attaining the intellectual level of the third adjutant mind spirit, guardian angels are assigned to each mortal.
