What do you think about this statement?

^{332.38) 30:1.92} IV. EVENTUATED TRANSCENDENTAL BEINGS. There is to be found on Paradise a vast host of transcendental beings whose origin is not ordinarily disclosed to the universes of time and space until they are settled in light and life.

why would the authors decide to tell us a little about eventuated transcendental beings? The statement above implies that this information has not even been revealed to worlds within Nebadon that are settled in light and life. why reveal this to Urantia?

Within this paper that discloses personalities of the grand universe there are several unrevealed beings, implying that we should at least think about beings that have nothing much to do with us. But these ETB’s are revealed- and it appears to be an exclusive revelation to Urantia.

any thoughts on what this revelation means to us? Are the revealators experimenting with us in some yet to be understood way? Or some way that we may see played out in the distant future?

are they trying to get us to use our creative imaginations?

Gene,

The way I read that quote is that the *origin* of these beings is not disclosed ….  They are not telling us the origin of the beings; only that these type of beings exist on Paradise.  So they are not revealing anything to Urantia that they are saying is not disclosed elsewhere.

With regard to why, I think you are on to something with your ‘trying to get us to use our creative imaginations’ comment.  I think they are letting us know the vastness and diversity of beings that exist as a means of helping us to open our minds and realize that we are far from the only type of sentient beings that God has created.

The first 2 paragraphs of paper 30 give some background as to the motivation for providing this information, and even refer to the imagination aspect of it.

^{30:0.1 (330.1)} THE personalities and other-than-personal entities now functioning on Paradise and in the grand universe constitute a well-nigh limitless number of living beings. Even the number of major orders and types would stagger the human imagination, let alone the countless subtypes and variations. It is, however, desirable to present something of two basic classifications of living beings—a suggestion of the Paradise classification and an abbreviation of the Uversa Personality Register.

^{30:0.2 (330.2)} It is not possible to formulate comprehensive and entirely consistent classifications of the personalities of the grand universe because all of the groups are not revealed. It would require numerous additional papers to cover the further revelation required to systematically classify all groups. Such conceptual expansion would hardly be desirable as it would deprive the thinking mortals of the next thousand years of that stimulus to creative speculation which these partially revealed concepts supply. It is best that man not have an overrevelation; it stifles imagination.

^{3337) 30:1.99} God, as a superperson eventuates.

these eventuated beings likely have their origin from God and the absolute? Pretty close to a disclosure imho.

^{333.2) 30:1.94} 1. The Architects of the Master Universe.

^{(333.3) 30:1.95} 2. Transcendental Recorders.

^{(333.4) 30:1.96} 3. Other Transcendentalers.

^{(333.5) 30:1.97} 4. Primary Eventuated Master Force Organizers.

^{(333.6) 30:1.98} 5. Associate Transcendental Master Force Organizers.

If this information was not in the revelation, it would not be complete, we would be missing something.

What is important about the hints and bits of info we are given about these Absoniters?
