obstructs any broader view, instead of beingable to look down from above through the spirit.
If he wishes to awaken he is compelled first to “transpose the signals”. Place what is now above, the
intellect, into the place given to it by nature, and restore the spirit to the highest position. This necessary
transposition is no longer quite so easy for the man of today. —
This act of reversal by man, carried out in the past, which was so incisively directed against the Will
of the Creator and thus against the Laws of Nature, constitutes the actual “fall of man” the consequences
of which could not be more terrible; for it consequently developed into “hereditary sin”, for the
consequence of elevating the intellect to the position of sole ruler was, that in the course of time, such
one-sided cultivation and activity also strengthened the brain one-sidedly, so that only that part which has
to do with the work of the intellect, grew bigger, and the other part had to atrophy. Thereby the part that
has become atrophied through neglect can operate today only as an unreliable dream-brain, which even
then is still under the powerful influence of the so-called day-brain, which activates the intellect.
Thus the part of the brain which should form the bridge to the spirit, or rather the bridge from the
spirit to everything earthly is thereby paralyzed; a connection is broken, or at least very much loosened,
whereby man has cut off all spiritual activity for himself and with it also the possibility of “animating,”
spiritualising and inspiring his intellect. Both parts of the brain should have been developed absolutely
equally for joint harmonious activity, like everything in the body. The spirit having the leading role, the
intellect having the executive function here on earth. It is self-evident that because of this, all of the
activity of the body, and even the body itself, can never be what it should be. This development naturally
pervades everything! For it means that now the most essential factor for all earthly things is missing!
It is easy to understand that the event of cutting off was simultaneously linked with the withdrawal
and estrangement from the Divine. Indeed, there was no longer any way to It.
Ultimately, this led to the disadvantage that for thousands of years already, due to the ever more
extensive hereditary transmission, the body of every newborn child comes to the earth equipped with a
frontal, intellectual brain so large that because of this condition, he is from the outset subject to the
intellect from the moment this brain develops its full activity. The gulf between the two parts of the brain
has now grown so wide, and their functions so unequal, that for the majority of all men an improvement
can no longer be achieved without catastrophe.
The intellectual man of today is no longer a normal human being, for he lacks any development in
the principal part of his brain which is associated with being a complete human being, since he has
allowed it to become atrophied for thousands of years. Without exception, every intellectual man has only
a crippled normal brain! Therefore brain-cripples have been ruling the earth for thousands of years; they
regard the normal human being as an enemy and seek to suppress him. In their crippled condition they
imagine that they accomplish a great deal, and do not know that the normal human being is capable of
achieving ten times as much, producing works of a permanent nature which are more perfect than the
present efforts! The way is open to every really serious seeker to acquire this ability!
An intellectual man, however, will no longer be able to grasp easily something that belongs to the
activity of this atrophied part of his brain! He is simply incapable of it, even if he should desire it; and
solely because of his voluntary restriction he ridicules everything that he is unable to attain, and which,
owing to his actually retarded, abnormal brain, will never at any time be understood by him either. Just
therein lies the most terrible part of the curse of this unnatural aberration. The harmonious co-operation of
both parts of the human brain which absolutely belongs to a normal human being is definitely impossible
for the present-day intellectual men, who are called materialists. —
To be a materialist is by no means a compliment, but evidence of an atrophied brain.
So far it has been the unnatural brain that has ruled this earth, and whose activity must in the end
bring about the inevitable collapse of all things, for due to its atrophy, everything it may wish to produce
will naturally bear within it disharmony and disease from the very start.
Nothing of this can now be changed any more, but one must calmly let the naturally developing
collapse come about. Then, however, will be the day of resurrection for the spirit, and of a new life! The
slave of the intellect, who has held the reins for thousands of years, will thus be done away with forever!
Never again will he be able to arise, because the evidence and his own experience will finally force him,
ill and spiritually impoverished, at last to submit voluntarily to that which he was unable to grasp. Never again will he be given the opportunity to oppose the spirit; either by scoffing or through a semblance of
righteousness by imposing force, such as was also used towards the Son of God, Who had to fight against
it. At that time there still would have been time to prevent much of the disaster. But now it is too late; for
in the meantime the loosened connection between the two parts of the brain can no longer be bridged.
Many intellectual men will again try to ridicule the explanations in this lecture, but, as always, except
for empty catchphrases, they will be unable to present even one really objective counter-argument. Yet
any serious seeker and thinker will have to take such blind zealotry simply as fresh proof of what I have
set forth herein. However hard they try, it is impossible for these people. Let us therefore regard them
from now on as sick persons, who will soon be in need of help, and... let us calmly await the time. No
struggle and no acts of violence are needed to force the necessary progress; for the end will come of itself.
Here too, through the immutable Laws of all reciprocal actions, the natural course of events will take
effect quite inexorably, and also punctually. — —
Then, according to various prophecies, a “new generation” shall arise. This generation, however, will
not only be made up of new births, such as are already observed now in California and also in Australia as
being endowed with a “new sense” but mainly of people already living, who in the near future will
become “seeing” through the many coming events. They will then possess the same “sense” as those
newborn ones do now; for this sense is nothing more than the ability to stand in the world with an open
and unrestrained spirit, no longer allowing itself to be suppressed by the limitation of the intellect.
Hereditary sin will thereby finally be eliminated!
But all this has nothing to do with what has been hitherto described as “occult faculties.” It will
simply be the normal man as he should be! To “become seeing” has nothing to do with “clairvoyance”,
but signifies “insight,” recognition.
Men will then be able to observe everything without bias, which simply means to assess. They will
see the intellectual man as he really is, with the limitations so dangerous to himself and his environment,
the origin of his presumptuous lust for power as well as the dogmatism which is actually a part of it.
And they will realize how for thousands of years all of mankind has suffered under this yoke in strict
consistency in one form or another and how this cancerous sore, as the hereditary enemy, has always been
directed against the development of the free human spirit, the main purpose in human existence! They
will not avoid anything, not even the bitter certainty that the tribulations, all of the suffering and every
downfall were bound to come about through this evil, and that there could never be any betterment,
because from the start, any recognition was precluded owing to the limitation of the perceptive capacity.
But with this awakening, all of the influence and all of the power of these intellectual men has
ceased. For all time; for then a new and better age for mankind begins in which the old can no longer
survive.
This will bring the inevitable victory of the spirit over the failing intellect, longed for by hundreds of
thousands today. Many of the masses who have hitherto been led astray will still recognize the fact that
until now they had completely misinterpreted the term “intellect.” The majority simply accepted it as an
idol, without examination, just because the others did the same; and because all its adherents always put
on airs of being infallible, absolute rulers through force and laws. That is why many do not even take the
trouble to expose the real hollowness of these people, and the deficiencies concealed thereby.
Nevertheless, there are those who for decades already have been fighting against this enemy with
tenacious energy and conviction, in secret and to some extent also openly, occasionally being exposed to
the most severe suffering. But they fight without knowing the real enemy! And this has naturally made
success more difficult. Indeed, it has made it impossible from the outset. The warriors’ sword was not
well sharpened, because they always nicked its edge by striking at non-essential things. With these non-
essentials, however, they have always struck to the side and missing the mark, wasting their own strength,
and only causing division among themselves which today is growing ever greater.
In reality there is only one enemy of mankind all the way down the line: the hitherto unrestricted
rule of the intellect! That was the great fall of man, his most grievous guilt, which brought all evil in its
wake. That is what became hereditary sin, and that also is the Antichrist of whom it is proclaimed that he
will raise his head. More plainly expressed, the dominance of the intellect is his tool through which men
have fallen prey. To him, the enemy of God, the Antichrist himself... Lucifer (* Lecture Nr. 89: The Antichrist)!
We are in the midst of this time! He dwells today in every human being, ready to ruin him; for his
activity turns man immediately away from God as a quite natural consequence. He cuts off the spirit as
soon as he is allowed to rule.
Therefore, let man be keenly on his guard. —
Now man must not diminish his intellect, but he must make it what it is, his tool; not, however, his
authoritative will. Not his master!
Man of the coming generation will be able to regard the past only with disgust, horror and shame.
Similar to the way we feel upon entering an old torture chamber. There, too, we perceive the evil fruits of
the cold, calculating domination of the intellect. For surely it is an indisputable fact that anyone
possessing but a little inner feeling, and thus spiritual activity, could never have devised such atrocities!
Altogether it is no different today, only somewhat more camouflaged, and the agony of the masses is the
same rotten fruit as was the individual torture in olden times.
On looking back into the past, man will only be able to shake his head in sheer amazement. He will
ask himself how it was possible to quietly endure these errors for thousands of years. The answer, of
course, is simple: by force. It can be recognized quite clearly anywhere one looks. Leaving aside the
times of remote antiquity, we need only enter the aforementioned torture chambers which can still be seen
everywhere today, and the use of which does not lie so very far back.
We shudder as we look at these old implements. What cold brutality, what bestiality do they reveal!
Hardly anyone today will doubt that this activity of the past represented the most heinous crime. An even
greater crime was thus perpetrated upon the criminals. But also many an innocent person was dragged
brutally from family and freedom, and cast into these dungeons. What lamentations, what screams of pain
sounded here from those who, completely defenseless, were at the mercy of their tormentors. People were
compelled to suffer things the contemplation of which simply fills one with horror and loathing.
Instinctively everyone asks himself whether it was really humanly possible to inflict all this on
defenseless human beings, and moreover under the guise of the law. Of a law that after all had once been
obtained only by force. And then, confessions of guilt were forced from suspects again through physical
pain, so that they could then be murdered at leisure. Even though these confessions of guilt were only
extracted under compulsion, in order to escape these insane physical tortures, they nevertheless satisfied
the judges, who needed them to comply with the “letter” of the law. Did these so narrow-minded ones
really imagine that in this way they could whitewash themselves before the Divine Will as well? And
escape the inexorable working of the basic Law of Reciprocal Action?
Either all of these people who dared to pass judgment on others were the scum of the most hardened
criminals, or it was the morbid limitation of the earthly intellect showing itself clearly. There can be
nothing in between.
According to the Divine Laws of Creation every person in authority, every judge, no matter what
office he holds here on earth, should never stand in his actions under the protection of his office. He alone
and purely personally must himself, like any other person, bear unprotected the full responsibility for
anything he does in his office. Not only in the spiritual but also in the earthly sense. Then everyone would
take things much more seriously and carefully. And so-called “errors” whose consequences are forever
irreparable, will certainly not occur again so easily, to say nothing of the physical and psychic suffering of
the victims and their relatives.
But let us further consider the so-called “witch trials” which are also part of this subject!
Anyone who has ever had access to court records of such trials would, overcome by burning shame,
wish never to be numbered among this mankind. In those days, if anyone even had knowledge of healing
herbs, either through practical experience or through tradition, and if he used this knowledge to aid
sufferers asking him for help, he was subjected to relentless torture from which he was released only
through death by fire if his body had not already succumbed to these cruelties.
At that time even physical beauty, especially chastity that did not yield willingly could be sufficient
cause.
And then the horrors of the Inquisition *(Trials for heresy)! Relatively few years separate us from “that time”!
Just as today we recognize this injustice, so also did the populace at that time feel it exactly the same
way, since the “intellect” had not yet limited them quite so much. Here and there feeling broke through in
them, i.e., the spirit.
Do we not recognize today the absolute narrow-mindedness in all this? The irresponsible stupidity?
Although these things are spoken of with an air of superiority and a shrugging of the shoulders, yet
fundamentally nothing has changed. The stupid presumption towards everything not understood is still
exactly the same! Except that instead of these tortures men now publicly scoff at everything which, owing
to their narrow-mindedness, they do not understand. Many a person would do well to search his heart and
think seriously about this without sparing himself. Any person who has the capacity to know something
which others are closed off from, who maybe able to see the ethereal world with ethereal eyes as a natural
happening, will be regarded as a swindler by hereos of the intellect, i.e., people who are not quite normal,
possibly even before a court; in the very near future this will no longer be doubted much less brutally
attacked.
And woe unto him who does not himself know what to make of it, but naively speaks of what he has
seen and heard. He must fear the consequences as did the first Christians under Nero with his helpers
always ready to murder.
Should he even possess different abilities which can never be grasped by absolute intellectuals, then
he will most certainly be mercilessly hunted, slandered and ostracized unless he complies with everyone’s
wishes; if at all possible he will be rendered “harmless” to use a fancy phrase. Nobody has any qualms of
conscience about it. Even today such a man is regarded as fair game for anyone, some of whom may be
very unclean inwardly. The more narrow-minded, the greater the delusion of cleverness and the proclivity
to conceit.
Man has learned nothing from these happenings of days gone by, with their tortures, burnings at the
stake, and the ludicrous trial records! For even today anyone is still free to defile and insult with impunity
all that is unusual and not understood. In this respect it is no different now from what it was then.
Worse than the proceedings of the courts of law were those of the Inquisition which were instigated
by the Church. Here the screams of the tortured were drowned out by pious prayers. It was a mockery of
the Divine Will in Creation! Representatives of the churches of those days thus proved that they had no
idea of Christ’s true teaching, nor of the Godhead and Its Creative Will, Whose Laws lie irrevocably
anchored in Creation where they take effect in the same way as they have from the beginning and as they
will to the end of time.
God endowed the human spirit in its very nature with the free will to decide. Only in this free will
can it mature as it should, refine itself and develop fully. Therein alone lies the possibility for it to do so.
Crippling this free will, however, presents an obstacle if not a forced regression. Christian churches,
however, as well as many religions, fought against this Divine ordinance, opposing it with the greatest
cruelty. By means of torture and finally through death, they sought to compel people to pursue courses
and make confessions which were against their conviction, thus against their will. Thereby they violated
the Divine commandment. More than that, they hindered men’s spiritual progress and threw them back by
centuries.
If only a spark of true feeling, thus of the spirit, had shown itself, this should and could never have
happened! Therefore, only the coldness of the intellect worked such inhuman barbarities.
As history shows, even many a Pope permitted the use of poison and dagger to realize his purely
earthly wishes and aims. That could only happen under the domination of the intellect, which in its
triumphal march subjugated everything and stopped at nothing. —
And supreme above all, the Will of our Creator lies immutable in the inevitable course of events. On
passing into the beyond every human being is divested of earthly power and its protection. His name, his
position, everything is left behind. Only a poor human soul passes over, there to receive and what it
sowed. Not a single exception is possible! Its path leads through all the wheels of the absolute reciprocal
action of Divine Justice. There is no church, no state, but only individual human souls who must
personally account for every error they have made!

To be continued next....

Good afternoon! It's so cool! I'm waiting for the continuation! And in fact, sometimes I really want my life to be like in a book, too. But there's been too much bad going on lately so I had to turn to Lux-review.com in order to consult a psychic about many questions that I have in life. Good luck to me then..
