Good morning! Trust you all had a wonderful week.

Here is the continuation of the beautiful lecture we all enjoyed last week.


Enjoy!!


A great uniformity characterizes all of Creation and the world!
The reader and hearer of my lectures should always work within himself, scrutinizing my lectures
keenly, laying probes and building bridges from one lecture to another, as well as out to the great and
small happenings in the world! Only then will he be able to understand the Grail Message, and he will
find that it gradually shapes itself into one complete whole, leaving no gaps. Again and again in all the
happenings the reader will come back to the basic features. He can explain everything and deduce
everything without having to change one single sentence. He who detects gaps lacks full understanding.
He who does not realize its great depth and all-embracing character is superficial, and has never tried to
penetrate the spirit of the Truth brought here and make it come alive.
He may join the masses who, full of self-complacency and believing they already possess the highest
knowledge, follow the broad road. Presumptive knowledge prevents such lost beings from recognizing, in
other things which have been said, the vitality lacking in their own pseudo-knowledge. Wherever they
look, whatever they hear, everywhere their self-satisfaction with what they imagine they hold firmly in
their hands blocks them. Not until they reach the boundary line, where all untruth and sham are inevitably
rejected, will they recognize that their hand, when they open it, contains nothing which would enable
them to continue on their path and to ultimately enter the Kingdom of the Spirit. Then, however, it will
prove too late to retrace their steps and to accept what they previously rejected and disregarded. There is
no longer sufficient time for that. The gate to the entrance is locked. The last opportunity is missed. —
Only when man actually becomes what he should be and ceases to cling to what he wishes to be can
he speak of a true humanity. He must always remember that he only issued out of Creation, by no means
directly from the Hand of the Creator.
“That is quibbling with words, for basically it is just the same, only expressed differently,” say the
arrogant, rotten, sterile products of this humanity because they will forever remain incapable of
perceiving the great gulf that exists. Once more they are fooled by the simplicity of the words.
Only He who becomes inwardly alive will not carelessly ignore this, but he will try to intuitively
perceive the immeasurable distances and sharp lines of demarcation.
Were I now to show all the divisions of Creation already, then many an “inwardly” great person
would lie shattered on the ground, upon recognizing that such words contain Truth. They would be
crushed by the realization of their own smallness and insignificance. The frequently used expression
“earth-worm” is applied justly to those who today still boast of their cleverness and “spiritual superiority”
but who soon, very soon, must be the lowest in all Creation, if they don't in fact belong to the condemned.
—
The time has now come to comprehend the world as such aright. There is justification in separating
that which is temporal from that which is spiritual, also in earthly life. These terms probably originated
from the proper intuitive sense of some human beings, for they reflect the difference existing right
through the entire Creation. We can also divide Creation into Paradise and the World, i.e., into the
spiritual and the temporal. Here, the spiritual is not excluded from the temporal, but the temporal is
excluded from the spiritual.
We must call the World the World of Matter, which is also animated by the pulse of the spirit. The
Spiritual is the Spiritual Realm of Creation, Paradise, from which everything that is material is excluded.
Thus we have Paradise and the World, the spiritual and the material, Primordial Creation and evolution,
which may also be called self-acting subsequent replication.
Creation proper merely consists of Paradise, the Spiritual Kingdom of today. Everything else is only
developed, i.e., it is no longer created. And what has been developed must be designated as the World.
The World is transient and develops from the emanations of Creation, which it emulates and models itself
after as an image, it is animated and supported by spiritual emanations. It matures and then disintegrates
again when over-ripe. The spiritual, however, does not age, but remains forever young or, in other words:
eternally the same.
Guilt and atonement are only possible in the World! This is due to the imperfection of the subsequent
development. Guilt of any kind is utterly impossible in the Realm of the Spirit.

He who has seriously read my lectures will be absolutely clear about this. He knows that nothing of
the Spiritual which flows through the world can return into the Pure-Spiritual Realm as long as even a
speck of a different species from its journey remains attached to the Spiritual. The smallest speck makes
crossing a border into the Spiritual Realm impossible. The spirit will be held back, even if it had
advanced to the very threshold. With this last remnant still attached the spirit cannot enter because the
different and baser consistency of this speck does not allow entrance. Not until the moment when this
speck severs itself and sinks back does the spirit become completely free, thus attaining the same light
consistency as prevails in the lowest plane of the spiritual sphere, thereby constituting the law therein, and
it is not only able, but is compelled to cross over the threshold at which it was previously held back by the
last particle.
This process can be considered and described from many angles, but it remains exactly the same,
regardless of the words used to illustrate it. I can embellish it with the most fantastic stories, can use many
parables to make it understandable, but the fact in itself is quite plain and simple, and is produced by the
effect of the three laws I have so often mentioned.
And ultimately it may rightfully be said that no sin can occur in Paradise, i.e., the Pure-Spiritual,
which remains untouched by any guilt, because it was created by the Holy Spirit Himself. Consequently,
only that which is created is of full value, while subsequently, in that which evolved therefrom as a
replica of Divine Creation and which is left entirely to the human spirit as stomping ground for his
development and strengthening, it is possible for guilt to be incurred through the wrong volition of these
indolent human spirits, and this guilt must be atoned for and redeemed before the Spiritual is able to
return. If in following a self-chosen urge spirit-germs issue from Creation, i.e., from Paradise, in order to
wander through this world, one can naturally say by way of illustration that they are like children who
leave home in order to learn and finally to return fully matured. This expression is justified if taken as an
illustration. However, everything must always remain as an illustration, and must not be converted to
something personal, as men always attempt to do. Since the human spirit only burdens itself with guilt in
the world, such a thing not being possible in the Spiritual Sphere, it is natural that it cannot return to the
Spiritual Realm until it frees itself from this burden of guilt. I could give a thousand different illustrations
of this; they would all have to have the same fundamental meaning which I have so often described in the
working of the three simple basic laws.
It sounds strange to many people when I describe the process objectively, because illustrations flatter
man’s conceit and self-love. He much prefers to live in a dreamland, because everything sounds much
nicer there, and he imagines himself to be much more important than he really is. In so doing he makes
the mistake of refusing to see the objectivity therein, but instead works himself into imaginative fantasy,
thus losing his way and his support and is then horrified, and perhaps even indignant, when I plainly and
in all simplicity show him how Creation is and what part he actually plays in it. For him, the transition is
like that of a small child, who in the tender hands of a mother or grandmother, listened happily and with
sparkling eyes and cheeks flushed with excitement to fairy tales, only later to see the reality of the world
and of people. A reality altogether different from the beautiful tales, and yet, upon a keen, retrospective
look at these fairy tales, it is basically the same. This moment is bitter but necessary, otherwise the child
would be unable to make any progress and would, being “unworldly,” suffer greatly and perish.
It is no different here. He who wishes to ascend further must at last come to understand Creation in
all its reality. He must stride firmly on his feet, and no longer lose himself in sentimentality which may be
alright for an irresponsible child, but not for a mature man, whose power of volition penetrates Creation,
either in a supportive or in a disruptive way, uplifting or destroying him in the process.
Girls who read novels which misrepresent and only veil the reality of life will, through the fanciful
illusions thus awakened, quickly experience bitter disappointments in life, very often even become broken
for their entire time on earth, falling easy prey to unscrupulous deceitfulness, which they had approached
trustingly. It is no different with the development of a human spirit in Creation.
Therefore away with all metaphor, which man never learned to understand, since he was much too
lazy for the seriousness of proper interpretation. It is time for the veils to fall so that man can see clearly
whence he came, what duties his task bestows upon him, and also whereto he must return. He needs to be
shown the right path! And he will find this path clearly marked in my Grail Message, provided he wishes
to see it. The Word of the Grail Message is alive so that only those who carry the genuine desire within
their soul will find in abundance! It automatically repels all else.



To those who are conceited and who only seek superficially, the Message will remain a book with
seven seals!
Only he who willingly opens himself will receive. If from the beginning he approaches reading with
a sincere and undistorted mind, then everything he seeks will be revealed in glorious fulfillment! But
those whose hearts are not completely pure will be repelled by this Word; or the Word will close itself off
to deceitful eyes. They will find nothing therein! Thus each will receive the verdict exactly according to
how he confronts this Word. —
The time for dreaming is over. The Word brings the Judgment. It automatically separates the human
spirits through the difference in the way they grasp it. This process, however, is so simple and natural that
it will seem too simple for the majority of people; therefore once again they are unable to recognize the
great and powerful Judgment which is released thereby.
The Judgment lies in the days of this first separation of all human spirits, which the respective
reception of the new Word of God imposes on each individual! It does not lie only in the later
consequences resulting from that separation, whereby everyone has to complete the path which they had
decided upon and on which they will find their reward or punishment.
In order first to arouse all men one more time, and to give them an opportunity for serious reflection,
during which some may perhaps still reach out for that rescue rope which alone leads out of these
lowlands there will come events of such severity that stubborn mankind would never dream they are so
near at hand. How easily much of this could have been avoided! Now it is too late, however. May the
grueling events still turn to a blessing for many as long as they finally realize the uselessness of false
prophets and leaders upon whom they now rely so heavily; because only the Truth will outlast the coming
time victoriously and permit recognition of the God-appointed leader, to whom alone the power is given
to help in the desperate spiritual as well as earthly distress! —
