Why am I here? What will happen to me after I die? As seekers, we feel certain that there must exist an objective answer to these questions. But such answers are only available to those who open themselves to the living, transforming Truth. But this living Truth is not something that was once said by a philosopher or a theologian, or found hidden in some ancient manuscript. Neither do you need to seek it far from home, for it lies within you, yourself, and has only to be reawakened and allowed to bloom.

We explained that, very often, the ideals people strive for originate from the primordial atom, the last remnant of the original life in the human being. This remnant is what gives rise to pre-remembrance and the deep-seated, often unconscious, yearning for a life without conflict Read More Read Full Text

This cannot be done in an experimental way. Overcoming of the egocentric consciousness is only possible if the need for it is experienced from within. In this process, the personality is indispensable and the body has an important role to play. This does not mean to say that the physical body itself is spiritualized or resurrected in a divine life field, but that its organs have a task to perform in a spiritual sense.

As we explained, this miniature world has its own microcosmic firmament – the aural being – and its own microcosmic earth – the personality. So your I – the personality – is mortal, a temporary vehicle that is replaced by a new one every time the microcosm enters into a new incarnation in matter. So far, however, we have only given you a somewhat simplified view of the microcosm. In reality, this life system is much more complex. Yet we hope you will have understood our main point, which was to show that the earthly personality is not independent, but very much under the influence of the aural being, the microcosm, and hereditary factors.

When we, as personalities, recognize and accept our task, these additional functions of our bodily vehicles help us to cooperate consciously in the process of restoring the true Human Being. Every insight, every step forwards, means a change in the deep rooted way that our consciousness functions and as such influences the characteristics of certain organs of our personality. It is the task of the consciousness to actively cooperate in this fundamental process of reversal, allowing it to begin clearing the way for the renewal of the microcosm.

All the body’s organs – especially the blood – have other functions in addition to their biological ones. When we, as personalities, recognize and accept our task, these additional functions of our bodily vehicles help us to cooperate consciously in the process of restoring the true Human Being. The metabolic processes going on in our bodies are also involved in the process of fundamental reversal. Every insight, every step forwards, means a change in the hidden characteristics of certain organs. In this way, the aural being also changes and the microcosm is made increasingly receptive to the forces that will ultimately lead to the rebirth of the soul. Read More Read Full Text
