Volume 7:

The Spiritual Planes I

For all those who have already thoroughly absorbed my Message, and only for them, it is now time for me to pull the picture of Creation a little further apart again in order to increase their knowledge of it.

You will thereby be initiated into higher knowledge that has not been given to people so far because they would not have understood it, because they would still have been far too spiritually immature to be able to absorb it. And even of their own accord, no human being has ever been able to attain this knowledge.

It must be given from Above as a grace from the Light! So far, I have often spoken of Primordial Beings who work in the Primordial Creation, the Pure Spiritual Realm.

Instead of Pure Spiritual, I could also use the term High Spiritual and Wholly Spiritual with equal rights, as well as describe it as the Highest Spiritual. All would be correct.

But I preferred the word Pure-Spiritual with regard to the purest spiritual that could form there. It is the purest and therefore the strongest of the spiritual, which is capable of becoming fully conscious and remaining consciously active under the highest pressure of luminous Light that the spiritual can ever bear as being spiritual.

In the process of becoming conscious, the form arose at the same time, without first having a slow process of evolution, as is necessary in deeper, even more cooled, and thus denser and also slower circles of movement of this Creation.

After the strongest and purest of the spiritual was able to detach itself immediately and remain in the proximity of the Divine Plane, held in Light Pressure by its strong attraction, the rest was pushed further away by this pressure because it was not able to withstand it and had to give way to the too strong pressure after the strongest of it had become form. Form of various kinds, such as human, animal and plant forms, water, fire, air and earth, all remaining spiritual, of course.

The spiritual species, which had been pushed back even further and remained unformed, was able to cool down even more at a greater distance from the luminous Light and thus a new realm arose again; for in the cooling, what was now considered to be the strongest in the rest of the spiritual was able to detach itself again in a formative way in order to have a conscious and active effect on this cooled-down level.

The second, however, like the first, uppermost, still have many gradations in themselves, which were formed according to the speed with which their consciousness was able to shape itself.

The differences in this were in turn caused by differences in a more or less strong ability to withstand the proximity of the Light Pressure.

Here, too, there are still fine distinctions to be made. Each plane of a certain homogeneous species therefore still has numerous spheres within its boundaries, which can appear to be approaching the highest point of this corresponding plane or to be more distant.

This often gives rise to subtly perceptible transitions, which in this way run without interruption through the whole of Creation and provide marvellous, most seamless connections for the flooding of the Light Force, stages, as we can also call them, but which, despite their delicacy, can never be surpassed upwards unless the corresponding constitutional strength is achieved in the same way!

The evolved human spirits, however, to which the earthly people belong, have their origin neither in the above-mentioned first nor in the second spiritual collective level, but they come from the last precipitation of the spiritual, which does not carry so much force in itself to be able to form itself consciously in the second level of the spirit.

It could not stay there either, because it could no longer resist the pressure of the Light even at this already distant point, after the part that was still able to do so in this second level had detached and formed. So the remaining part had to recede even further as the last precipitation, into even deeper cooling possibilities.

But even here, as the weakest part and last manifestation of the spiritual, it was not possible for it to become conscious itself without receiving an external impulse to do so. For this reason it remained only human spirit-germs, capable of evolving and also filled with the urge to do so through their spiritual nature, but not strong enough to awaken out of themselves and thus to form themselves and become conscious.

The spiritual nature of the plants and animals and everything else in this last precipitation was still able to form itself here and to form marvellous, populated landscapes; for this does not require the personal ego-consciousness as in the creatures of the human spiritual, which are only able to form themselves from the special kind of spiritual, which carries a self-will in itself, and is therefore of a different spiritual nature than that from which plants and animals are able to form themselves.

Only there, then, is the origin of the earthly human spirit as such in the great Creation, there arose and is also the Paradise of the human spirits evolving to perfection, thus the plane of their actual exit and at the same time of their return in perfection!

Seen from above downwards it lies at an immeasurable depth, but seen from the earth upwards it is nevertheless still at an unspeakable height; for the planes of materiality, which are the areas of evolution and fields of activity of the human spirits, extend far and wide.

The inability of self-awakening even at this outermost, most distant point from the Light of the last base of the spiritual forces these spirit germs, following the inner urge to evolve, to move even further in order to slowly evolve into spiritual consciousness in a wandering through the more and more distant fine and coarse World of Matter, as their frictions and impulses of their density and heaviness contribute and force them to awaken and strengthen.

This is the approximate picture of the becoming of your human spirit.

Up to now I have always spoken of the primordially created and the evolved, but I have not mentioned the created! This would have been too much for people as long as they do not yet know my Message thoroughly or have not yet actually absorbed it; for simply reading the Living Words of the Message is not enough. It requires an alert spirit and, right from the beginning, the greatest willingness in seeking the Light.

For those who are to be taken seriously and who ask for it, I alone give the expansion of the view into the marvellous Creation, which is around you as God's Work in clear greatness with the working of the most perfect and thus irrevocable self-acting Laws.

It remains unpleasant enough to know the unworthy way in which earthly humans has endeavoured for millennia to corruptively constrict and suppress the most valuable thing it possesses, indeed, what actually makes it human in the first place, the spirit, so that earthly humans are even ashamed now, to even speak of something spiritual, to admit to a spiritual experience, but it is agonizing to experience again and again that people still consider this voluntarily enforced narrowness to be cleverness, even erudition, in incredibly ridiculous stupidity!

There is only one consolation: the knowledge of the turn of these things, which is already approaching in a way that no one would suspect or believe, and the knowledge of the fact that some of these same people will then look back with shame on the time of shameful aberration, which will take them far away from their true human dream and human dignity, while the other part will no longer be an issue, because it no longer exists.

I only go further in my explanations with a view to this. Since I have spoken of the primordially created, it was only natural that I should also speak of the created; otherwise I would simply have mentioned the created and the evolved.

But I am willing to lift the veil further for the human spirit, after I have already given it a very condensed picture of the path of the Light up to It, which it had to cover with various anchors at every luminous help, in order to finally be rejected by these small earthly human beings with their outrageous arrogance and murdered earthly, as it has always happened so far.

Tremble therefore when God's omnipotence now calls you to judgement!

Visitors from the planes, which I mentioned to you today, have indeed often come down to you, but you have only absorbed meagre fragments of them and moulded them according to your human nature, so that the renditions can only be found as badly distorted debris in legends and poetry. Confused and, according to the Law of Creation, impossible to depict, interwoven with various pure-earthly events... this became a mixture that seems sublime to you and yet appears ridiculous in the face of the truth and can only be excused by your ignorance.

Before my message, people had already heard here and there about the existence of such planes, but they were unable to distinguish between them because they lacked any real knowledge about them, and therefore the most impossible constructs arose in the usual conceit of human cleverness.

It is understandable that serious people shook their heads and kept a reasonable distance from it, while the most devastating aberrations arose among enthusiasts and fantasists, quite apart from the fact that it was mainly the many short whippersnappers who sought to rise up in it without effort in order to be able to satisfy at least once the sick tendency of wanting to be effortlessly successful that always clings to them!

A disgusting, ethereal swamp was all that arose from it, which became very dangerous to human spirits because it prevented them from being able to absorb the Truth uninfluenced and thus recognize the right path to ascension! This hesitation, however, became the destruction of many people who could otherwise have saved themselves from it.

Despite everything, however, it is ultimately the inner and free will and the consequence of a self-created inertia of the spirit of each individual, which thereby holds back from recognizing itself and in the Judgement must therefore fall prey to the Law of God as useless.

Anyone who makes the slightest effort must very soon recognize the Truth of the poems in intuition.

Let's take the legend of Parzival! Starting from this small earth in thought, man seeks to explore and find something about Parzival in order to discover the origin, the genesis of this saga.

It is true that the poets of the earth had earthly persons in mind who gave an external impulse to the form of poetry, but in their work of spiritual immersion they unconsciously drew many things from sources that they themselves did not know. However, since in the end they again honed their intellect and sought to make it earthly beautiful and easier to understand, the little that could flow to them from the unknown planes was squeezed into the gross materiality, diminished and distorted.

It is not worth going into this in detail. I give the facts and each person can take from them what their spirit is capable of.

However, it is necessary to point out a few things from the outset, which must clarify many errors for many and make things much easier for those who can be initiated into higher realizations, as they are able to rise above everything that is false that has taken root on earth right from the start.

In reality, there is a Castle where Amfortas lived and was considered the supreme guardian for a time. In this castle is a Vessel called the "Grail", which is faithfully guarded by the knights. It was there Amfortas actually came to his fall and was promised a great helper.

But this was neither on earth nor was it the High Castle of Light of the Primordial Creation in which this happened.

The Castle that is proclaimed there is still located today as the highest point on a level in which the Created Ones have their field of activity. In their purest will and worship of God, they have only created an imitation of the Castle of Light that radiates down from the highest point in the Primordial Creation and, as the actual Castle of the Holy Grail, also forms the exit gate from the Divine Sphere of Radiation.

Amfortas once worked in this lower-lying imitation Castle and fell when he succumbed to the evil influence of Lucifer, who swung up to him from the depths. His mistake was that, following this influence, he sought for a short time to indulge in the cosy enjoyment of a proud knightly life.

He thus came out of the equilibrium of the necessary movement of his plane, which the Primordial Law of Creation automatically compels those who are willing to remain at the same level. It came to a standstill for a short time and thus created a gap that inhibited the flooding of the Force of Light.

So his fall was inevitable and it tore him down. The gap was the wound he bore. In response to the pleas of the faithful knighthood, the coming of the helping Pure One, who can put a stop to the destruction, was announced beforehand.

And Parzival fulfilled the promise as He wandered through all the parts of Creation, just as He fulfils all the promises ever made to the creatures of all Creation. But the fulfilment was quite different from what is stated in the poem.

The description of Creation also brings full enlightenment in this respect and eliminates everything so far wrong.

These are therefore only parts of a message from the imitation Castle of Light, which could penetrate to the absorbed spirits of these earth poets and were taken up by them during their work, but not by the Luminous Castle of the Grail itself; for there it was impossible to proclaim Parzival first, because Parzival was and is the first in all Creation, from Him the whole of Creation could first arise. He is a Part of the Spirit of God Imanuel, anchored in the Pure Spiritual in order to create the Pure Spiritual.

It was from His Light that the Primordial Beings first arose, and with them the Castle and everything that was formed. So He could not be promised to anyone first, since He Himself was the First and everything else could only become after Him. Apart from Him, no one has ever been King of the Holy Grail!

For this reason, the Castle of which the poets speak must quite naturally be deeper than the actual Grail Castle, because Parzival later travelled through the realm to redeem it from the evil influence of Lucifer and to bind him Himself for the Divine Kingdom of the thousand years in the World of Matter.

So, on His journey through all parts of creation, He also came to the Castle that is wrongly described in the poem. But He entered there as King of the Holy Grail, which He is from the beginning and will remain forever, because He Himself comes from the Light. Nor did He remain there, but appointed a new supreme guardian for Amfortas for the Vessel that they honour as an image of the Holy Grail.

In the Holy Castle of Light, which surrounds the actual Grail, the failure of one of its guardians is quite impossible, as Parzival remains present there, in whom an Unsubstantial Part of the Light Itself is anchored, which was led down from Imanuel through the Primordial Queen Elisabeth at the Word of God: Let there be Light!
