In the presence
of God there is no evil. To blame God for the evil that we cause
is like blaming mathematics for our errors or music if we
cannot
play a musical instrument properly. God is no respecter of persons,
of race, nationality or religion. From the divine perspective,
God is one! And if we ask why the world is not as beautiful
and ideal as it might be, the answer must lie in ourselves,
for we are the creators of the conditions here on earth.
We are never the victims of anything outside ourselves. If we
wish to improve our imperfect earthly conditions, we can become
active in two directions: outwardly and inwardly. And we can
pursue our struggle with or without love.
Struggle need not be bad. However, if we fight against something,
we have already lost. For then our energy flows to our adversary
and makes him stronger. But if we fight for something, we direct
our attention towards something perfect, and that is already
a good beginning. And yet we will be unable to harvest any good,
ripe fruit if we forget love in our struggle. Struggle without
love is self-righteous, hard and separating. A warrior nature
may perhaps need to tread a dangerous path where defeat lurks
on both sides of a razor's edge. There are people whose zeal
is kindled only when faced with the toughest challenge. The
peaceful path of love is gentler. It can be found and trodden
with a little discipline, but here too we must be clear about
one thing when we set out: as our knowledge grows, so does our
responsibility. Everyone who reads this article will subsequently
have a greater responsibility for life, and it makes no difference
whether he believes its content or not.
If we wish to find
the essence of love, we must first go to its source. It arises
in each of us - each one without exception, even if it is no
more than a trickle in the heart of a cynic or world-weary person.
The great immutable commandments that order the infinite realm
of life throughout eternity are all based on the great principle
of creation, namely LOVE. It is the heart, the source of all,
the true center point from which the entire world of form pours
forth. So: love thy neighbor as thyself. If you don't at first
bathe in the love of your own being, you can perhaps try
to be kind to others and do good to them. But your acts
will then not be truly permeated by the essence of love.
It was said of the Count de Saint Germain that he was the only
one who knew the 'secret of peace'. What might that mean? Peace
is the sea that lies tranquil because all storms have abated.
It is based on harmony, on unison rather than mutual strife,
it is the opposite of a struggle against something. There can
be no true peace without love, and peace originates from the
knowledge that we are all one. I cannot hurt anyone without
hurting myself at the same time. Peace comes from accepting
reality: everything exists, and everything is good. As soon
as I criticize something, am dissatisfied with it, my
peace is disturbed. As we are the real makers of the conditions
of our lives, it makes no sense to rebel against them. If they
do not agree with our ideas of how to live a perfect life, we
have probably done something 'wrong' and as long as we let our
thoughts and feelings run riot like young pups, we should not
be surprised if we don't find ourselves at the place of our
ideals. Thoughts are conscious creative forces: "In the beginning
was the word" - nay, an idea which became a word!
This knowledge ought to banish every feeling of powerlessness
and vulnerability from our minds: my thoughts and feelings can
weigh more deeply on the scales of all good on earth if I wish
it. So let us take our thoughts and feelings in hand! I will
be peaceful only if I am harmless: try to do no harm to any
part of life.
How can I do that? By going within, into the heart, where the
divine spark dwells. So first we move inwards, to the
source of love.
Have you ever asked
what makes our heart beat? Is it not a marvel that still remains
completely mysterious to us, while we seek the principle of
perpetual motion? A new heart already begins to beat in the
mother's womb, rhythmically, continuously through the entire
span of life. No physician can answer this question from his
textbooks. A few years ago, American medical researchers discovered
a pencil-sized point in the upper left part of the heart that
was much hotter than the rest of the heart. It is the point
at which the divine spark glows in the heart, and this glow
can be physically observed! This spark is continuously fed by
the stream of divine electrons - the divine light - that flows
from the creator into the heart of every human being. Most heart
specialists know about this mysterious point in the heart, but
they rarely talk about it, because they have no explanation
for it. We know of a surgical team at a Swiss hospital that
refuses to perform cardiac operations close to this point. They
know that when an operation is performed there, the patient
is very likely to die. So it is not merely a beautiful idea
that we and God are one, but a physical fact that - even if
we deny God - we are supplied at every moment of our lives with
His life energy, which streams into the spark in our heart.
This spark originates from the being of God, and its destiny
is to become a great and powerful flame one day. So there is
such a high density of electrons at this point, so much energy
flows in, that a physically observable spark manifests. Every
blood molecule that flows through our heart is charged with
this divine energy, the life force itself, and this same energy
flows continuously through our nervous system. The spark in
the heart keeps our bodily temperature constant. We get a fever
when this spark expands a little temporarily and thus raises
the body temperature, thus incinerating viruses and bacteria.
However, the body can withstand a temperature rise of only about
five degrees. Above this point, our physical system collapses.
At a temperature of 43 degrees Celsius, the proteins begin to
disintegrate - resulting in physical death.
By being pulsed through the heart, and specifically through
this hot spot, the blood is continuously purified and transformed.
So our heart is not simply a pump, but a transformer and cleaner
of our blood - and we can guess what this means when we are
aware that the blood is also called the 'bearer of the soul'.
In any case, the idea of the heart as a pacemaker needs to be
corrected. It is not the heart that pumps. The blood flows under
its own spiraling force, receiving the impulse to do so from
this spark.
Every genuine evolutionary step in human beings is associated
with an enlargement of this spark. Every denial of God, every
turning away from Him, every destructive thought and feeling
weakens this spark. The smaller the spark, the greater the woes
of our world: sickness, hardship and destitution. But as soon
as we begin to harmonize our thoughts and feelings and prove
our sincerity by a more spiritual and loving life, this spark
in our hearts also expands. Everything that we do is henceforth
charged with more energy, has greater active force - and greater
consequences if we carelessly misuse these energies. The key
to the spark in the heart is love. If we sit in the stillness,
in peace with ourselves, and sink into our hearts with loving
thoughts, we simply must >perceive an echo - perhaps
a weak one, like a feebly flickering candle - and yet! The spark
is there, in each of us, and if it were not, our heart would
have stopped beating.
Our body is the 'temple of the most high', and the heart is
its tabernacle. This is neither pious talk, nor a matter of
opinion, but physical reality! I AM A CELL IN THE BODY
OF GOD. Without me God is incomplete, and every denial of my
own divinity is blasphemy! I AM the third aspect of the divine
trinity that also dwells in my heart.
For those who had always considered themselves as separate from
God in the last two millennia, this statement may be hard to
accept. And yet it is true.
The divine trinity is not purely male, as the priests of the
Catholic Church insist. It is - essentially - a 'heavenly family':
God the Father, God the Mother and the Christ child. God the
Father corresponds to the will, power or force (blue flame);
God the Mother to loving wisdom and illumination (golden flame);
and together they bring forth the 'child', love (pink flame)
also known as the Christ. Will, wisdom and love are thus the
aspects of the divinity that also dwell in our hearts: as the
threefold flame to which the spark must one day awake. The larger
this flame grows, the more light energy can flow into our physical
body. Its rate of vibration then naturally speeds up, for our
cells too are ultimately condensed light. The higher the vibrations
of a body, the faster do the electrons vibrate in the atom and
the more receptive do we become to higher vibrations.
We bring ourselves increasingly into resonance with what is
perfect, and this will also be reflected in our personal world.
Economic recession, sickness, end-of-the-world fears do not
even reach us, because there is nothing in us that can resonate
with such things. We have literally raised ourselves above the
world of Maya, the world of shadows and mass consciousness.
The only security that we find is in our divine self, for this
self, life and the law are ONE.
