Divine Revelation
My beloved sons and daughters, My revealed word today comes from My wisdom, which does not mean that it does not also contain all My love. Its emphasis, however, lies in letting you look a little more deeply into the connections that concern your own life, your very personal well-being and distress, but also the destiny of groups and communities and that of entire peoples and cultures. This is necessary because you are once again to become personally responsible children of My love who can effectively express in their existence the love dwelling within them. But this is possible only when you no longer allow yourselves, in ignorance, to be moved around like “chess pieces on the board of your life.”
I want to help you fill with realization some of the still-blind spots in your consciousness—on your “soul glasses”—that arose through an exceedingly skillful method of the opposing forces still practiced today. This will succeed in those who follow My words with the heart, not only with their outward eyes and ears, and who are ready to reflect on My enlightenment.
Humanity faces an exceedingly powerful adversary whose danger to the salvation of each individual’s soul, and often also to his physical health, can scarcely be rated highly enough. There are two reasons for this.
The first: a large part of humanity, if it has any idea at all, has only a very vague idea of this danger, which at the same time means it is scarcely recognized, at most known by the name given it when it is called devil, Satan, Lucifer, and other things. I call it darkness, the forces of darkness, the opposing forces, My adversary and yours, and the beings from the Fall.
And the other reason: from this it follows that My human children have scarcely developed a truly effective strategy for how they can oppose the continual attempts at disturbance, influence, and manipulation all the way to destruction. Putting My commandment of love into practice is indeed the means—the only means—that can cause the continual temptations and attacks to come to nothing, but the question of the degree to which My commandment has been and is observed answers itself with a glance at the condition of your world.
Asking for My protection through prayer is indeed one possibility, but you yourselves know that it is not enough merely to send a cry for help to heaven in corresponding situations in the hope that this will solve the fundamental problem of continual restriction, discouragement, fear, negative outlook, all the way to depression and hopelessness.
It can indeed be useful once to place yourselves in the position of a dangerous opponent in order to gain a certain idea of his method and goals. No good strategist who wants to protect himself, his family, his friends, or even his people will fail to do this. Why, then, do My children act this way? Figuratively speaking: “Why do they sit there and wait?”
Who asks himself why this or that irregularity or apparent injustice suddenly enters his life, especially since most of you by now know that there is no chance? Unfortunately many still believe that I—love—am the One responsible for it. And so not a few still assume that it represents punishment from Me when their life does not run along such happy tracks as they imagine or desire.
*
Let Me insert something here that actually should not be necessary. I do so nevertheless because I see the question arising in many a heart: “Is it not too harsh to speak of opposing forces, the adversary, danger, darkness, and so forth? To speak of their mercilessly harming human beings, manipulating them, driving them into wasting illness or physical death, and suppressing and binding them by every means imaginable? Are these beings not also children of God who deserve our love?”
My beloved, the love that I am in a greatness incomprehensible to all beings includes forever and eternally within this love everything I have ever created and ever will create. All, without exception, whatever evil they may have done.
If this were not so, I would not have come into the world Myself; for I wanted also, and especially, to save and bring back the apostates among My children who intended to destroy My creation and thereby themselves, although they were not conscious of this. There was and for all eternity is no power other than Mine capable of opposing a “Stop” to Sadhana’s* and her following’s concentrated attempt to create a creation of their own according to their ideas.
In this, by the way, I did not interfere with the free will of those who had fallen; rather, the causes they had created over an infinitely long period came into effect, but not as punishment—instead in the form that I gave Myself as the “sacrifice” for those who wanted to destroy Me** and once again cleared for them the way into their home.
Can you imagine a greater love?
I saved them, for their undertaking was thwarted by My human death on the cross and the redemption that followed; the gates into the heavens have since stood wide open again. The so-called Fall or fall of the angels, of which your Scriptures speak in only a very few places, was stopped. Without knowledge of the Fall, however, which represents a unique, that is, nonrecurring event in creation, My act of redemption cannot be meaningfully conveyed. Knowledge of it therefore represents the pivot in coming at all to a correct understanding of why realms outside heaven, including the material universe, arose. And of how and why the relentless struggle from the invisible realm, about which scarcely anyone knows anything and from which no one is spared, has been carried on for an infinitely long time and in your time is striving toward a provisional climax.
I permitted the formation of all these spheres so that Sadhana and those obedient to her had a place to remain. At the lowest point of the Fall, matter formed. On your earth life gradually developed, which finally also brought forth human beings. Remember: everything is evolution! In this way the fallen beings received the possibility of incarnating in order to prepare and initiate their return, provided they wished it.
The material world together with all the forms it brought forth therefore arose as a consequence of the Fall. There would not be a single realm outside heaven if everything had remained in heavenly unity. Why should I have created anything outside unity?
But I not only saved My fallen children from the dissolution becoming apparent, from the destruction they themselves had brought about. I will also bring them back, because, first, this is My will and, second, I have the power to do so.
When it happens lies in the freedom of will of the forces that were and still are against Me and you, for they still possess their freedom of will. It was not touched by Me. But all of them, whom I still love to the same degree as those who remained faithful to Me, are subject until their return home to the law of sowing and reaping, which, by the way, applies equally to all beings outside the heavens.
I too, as Jesus of Nazareth, was not excluded from it. Had I been, I would have violated My own law. But I overcame all hostility and temptation and thereby showed human beings what a deep love and a great longing can accomplish. Without My having faced the negative forces in order finally to triumph over them, being an example would not have been possible; and My call to follow Me and likewise live and love would have been without inner power and would have faded away without effect.
The possible objection that one should rather not speak so clearly and plainly about evil, its backers, their motives, intentions, and methods, or preferably remain entirely silent, because such a thing does not correspond to the commandment of love, is therefore without justification. The secret, which fundamentally is none because I showed it to you, is:
Do not close your eyes and ears, but perceive what is being prepared and what is happening—and nevertheless love!
That, My sons and daughters, is one of the most difficult tasks of all. It is not accomplished by ignoring what is unpleasant and dangerous. The beings and forces standing behind it would indeed like that, but that is not the way. Of course it would be wrong to dwell on it and keep considering from every side everything that could happen. Then what is negative could very quickly take root in your inner feelings and thoughts.
Look and listen to what is necessary and important to see and hear, and then set all your positive forces against it. The best way to deal in the spirit of love with what meets you is this: through your example show that you are children of My love who are neither asleep nor ignorant and unwilling, but who endeavor to live love in daily life! In this way evil is redeemed. When that happens does not lie in your hands.
Remember what I once told you: “You are responsible for the seed, not for the harvest.” Leave the harvest and its time to Me.
What you live as an example, and what your brothers and sisters who are still in darkness experience as effects, will move them—even if in eons—to reflect on themselves, their actions, and the circumstances of their existence. For the manner of their existence cannot in any way be called what you understand by “life.” They themselves cut themselves off from the stream of life, which is nothing other than the energy of My love. But they do not know or believe it and vehemently reject such an explanation.
*
Many of them merely vegetate, full of hatred, anger, and revenge. They desire to harm those who in their eyes unjustly live more peacefully and with fewer burdens. Others, in turn, “live” as though in a kind of dream, without drive, without prospects for the future, without joys, and without light. Their world is gray, sluggish, dreary, and depressing. They are unfree to the highest degree, slaves of those who are more cunning and ruthless than they and who succeeded, through obedience to their superiors, in climbing their “career ladder.”
The higher a being is in the “hierarchy of darkness,” the more advantages are granted to him by those still above him. At the top of the hierarchy stand the demons, and beneath them all who want to profit from the energy they receive from others, primarily from human beings; but large parts of it they must pass on to those above them.
They receive no divine energy from Me for their actions directed against My law of love. But they are clever enough—for many still know parts of the laws of creation—to obtain, by indirect routes, at least a small quantity of the life-energy so urgently needed.
My sons and daughters, now use your intellect while including the logic of the heart that I teach you. Which “fuel pump” do they use? Which would you use? Would you try your luck with human beings and perhaps “break your teeth” on those whose vibration of love is higher than yours, whose power is therefore stronger than yours, so that your failure is already preprogrammed? Or would you begin where, because of your ability, you notice weaknesses of soul in the one opposite you—which are the same as weaknesses of character—something that can be read, among other things, in the aura? Would you not expect greater or even very great chances of success from an attack on these weak points? And rightly so?
The very greatest protection of all the beings who are more or less often or even regularly around you and try to influence you does not consist only in the fact that they are invisible. It consists in the fact that you scarcely know they are there and how they proceed! Indeed, that they exist at all!
This is at the same time their most effective weapon in the continual struggle all negative forces conduct in order to obtain the energy they so urgently need. Regardless of whether they can keep or claim it solely for themselves, or whether they merely serve as suppliers and must obey those who stand above them in the hierarchy of the powers of darkness.
The foremost endeavor of the fallen angels therefore had to consist in protecting themselves so that they could continue their destructive work as unnoticed and undisturbed as possible. What was and is more effective than presenting, or having presented, their own existence in a thousand different ways as vague, contradictory, confusing, and unclear? In this way the true face, the actual nature of evil is not recognized by many, with the consequence that its constant, threatening presence is considered unrealistic. But the danger is not thereby removed from the world.
They not only accepted being made ridiculous by, for example, depicting a devil with tail, trident, and cloven hoof as evil, something no one really took or takes seriously; this idea, altered and repeatedly reissued in many variants, was actively supported by them.
The consequence: very few still know of the thoroughly real danger proceeding from these forces. They do not know their intentions or the countless paths they take in order directly to influence the human beings they can reach because of the subtlety of their methods and the condition of soul prevailing within the human being.
Whoever warns of this is exposed to ridicule or accused of fearmongering. In this way the opposing forces achieved their goal: scarcely anyone truly believes in them anymore—and if so, then with vague or abstract ideas—and the ignorance produced in this way is the best shield behind which they can practice the seduction and bondage of My human children unhindered.
Can you nevertheless protect yourselves, at least to a certain degree, from these influences? Yes, but it presupposes that you know at all about the attacker against whom you want successfully to defend yourselves; that the truth about the constantly prevailing danger of influence upon your conduct is therefore brought close to My children, without fears that may arise preventing engagement with this subject.
Who is to do this when the immediate presence of negative forces and their subtle method are largely unknown to, or at least falsely portrayed by, those who feel called to bring My teaching to human beings?
Once more for reflection: Where would you begin—if you wanted to work against Me—in order to reach many human beings with an altered teaching of love? Would you choose insignificant people with little or no influence on others? Or, in your undertaking directed against Me, would you—figuratively speaking—“aim at the king,” that is, at the one who has means and ways available to bring inaccuracies, untruths, and distortions of My simple teaching among the people, knowingly or unknowingly? Provided you hit the king?
Did the forces of darkness hit their mark? The answer is not difficult to find if with open eyes and honest heart you consider the situation of your world today and must recognize that humanity is farther than ever before from living My commandment to love God and one’s neighbor.
*
I have told you several times that I am the only perpetual motion machine of creation. This means there is no other source of power than Mine, from which everything came forth and will come forth for all eternity! No being lives from itself; every one is sustained by My love. The fact that I alone am the origin of all being is not acknowledged by the forces that caused the Fall and still work toward a creation divided in two. They too indeed feel that they depend on energy, but they are not ready to see in Me their Creator and eternally outpouring love.
This brought them to their fall; for through their thinking and action directed against the law of love, their ability to take in the full measure of My energy of love became restricted. They lost more and more radiance, beauty, freedom, and much more. This principle applies throughout creation. It ensures that every disregard of My law becomes perceptible within the being itself and in this way sooner or later moves it to return to the way of love, selflessness, and service.
The reduction of their energy brought and still brings the beings of darkness many disadvantages. First and foremost, because of the reduction in the quantity and quality of energy, is the loss of a reasonably acceptable life, insofar as their existence can be called life at all. The stronger among them succeeded in making the weaker into their “suppliers of energy,” but this applies not only to souls in the astral realms who lead a pitiable existence as slaves. Beyond this, they succeeded and still succeed in shaping and thereby misusing My divine energy for their own purposes in such a way that others can be manipulated with it.
The chief suppliers of the so urgently needed energy, however, are human beings. They are My sons and daughters who, out of ignorance or unwillingness, follow their own law, their ego, and thereby disregard My commandment of love to a greater or lesser extent. This does not mean the small irregularities that repeatedly happen to you as human beings. But even in such situations you often feel how, for example after disappointment, irritation, worries, or disputes, you become powerless, listless, or discouraged. You have lost energy. Where did it disappear to? Who received it, or better, took it? Nothing in My creation disappears or dissolves “just like that” …
The opposing forces still know very well part of My spiritual laws. They work with them, and the law of attraction helps them find those human beings from whom drawing off the energy they urgently need proceeds relatively without difficulty. They know your faults and weaknesses and begin there deliberately. With attraction begins the seductive work, which you either follow or, if you recognize the intention, oppose with a clear no in My name.
What does this mean in practice? What realizations can you draw from it that protect you from being influenced and perhaps seriously harmed in body and soul by negative spirit beings and the destructive, impersonal forces they have established in the form of energy fields around the globe?
The domination of human beings by darkness, which massively intervened in human thinking and action, had reached its provisional high point two thousand years ago, which at the same time represented a low point in their spiritual and soul development. The opposing side had set its foot in all prevailing religions. This happened and still happens with high efficiency—because in its eyes the method proved itself—by the attack in most cases taking place from within. Unnoticed, a seed of discord, falsehood, and false teaching was and is planted in this way, which eventually sprouts and thereby paralyzes or destroys an individual, a group, or a system from within. Whoever proceeds this way does not have to remove the signpost at all. It is much more effective to turn it only a few degrees so that the traveler, who in good conscience believes he is on the right road, misses his destination.
The attempts of high spirit beings to move human beings toward new thinking and new ways of conduct in the spirit of a more loving life together had not shown the hoped-for fruits. Therefore I entered matter. My mission as Jesus of Nazareth consisted in teaching human beings one single principle and living it out; a principle that could be understood and lived by all: love. At the time of My incarnation, many ideologies and worldviews had already formed, all of whose contents were permeated to a greater or lesser extent by the intentions and ideas of the opposing forces.
With My simple teaching “love—and nothing else,” I turned everything upside down, while never calling on anyone fanatically and radically to throw everything else overboard at once. The way of love lived out is a way on which everyone in freedom determines for himself when he wishes to take which step, while not losing sight of the goal: namely, gradually to become again the love that he has been inwardly from eternity.
You might now ask: Can I, despite this knowledge I have just received, go through my days cheerful, unburdened, and happy? My beloved child, I tell you: precisely because of this knowledge you can be free of worry. For My words help you recognize the traps set by the opposing side. Closing your eyes cannot be the solution. The traps are still there. Only the one who knows about them can avoid them.
You will succeed in this whenever you endeavor to live with Me: not tensely and not dictated by fear that you might fail, but in the deep trust and unbreakable knowledge that I, your heavenly Father, love you; that you are also allowed to fall on your way, and that I am then there to help you get up. And that there is nothing, absolutely nothing, that can separate you from Me. I will receive you with outstretched arms and gather you into My arms with a heart overflowing with joy when you have found your way home again. Whenever that may be.
Also do not allow negative thoughts to rule you concerning your brothers and sisters who are not yet in the light and who—because they do not yet understand better—still try to make life difficult for you. They are your brothers and sisters, beings who like you were born from love and will find their way back to love. I wait for them with the same joy.
If My words have fallen into your heart in the right way, then you cannot do otherwise than meet them with compassion; not carelessly and lightly, but nevertheless with the desire that they too may soon come to realization and find a brighter and easier existence. The best way to help them is your prayer and your effort to include Me in everything you do. From the fruits that result for you they can recognize that there is another, far better way to live than the one they presently prefer. When they turn back, leave that to Me. You place the seed; the harvest is My concern. I bless My creation with everything that lives within it. And My blessing is like My love, which now, in this moment, flows into everyone and everything.
Amen
* or Lucifer = light-bearer, as she later called herself
** Whoever is not sure whether the books he reads or the spiritual teachings that interest him or to which he adheres are inspired by forces that indeed speak of love but do not mean the unconditional and selfless love of God should try to obtain an answer to the following central question, for which sometimes one simple follow-up question is enough: Is the necessity of redemption through Jesus Christ spoken of or not? If not, the Fall is not acknowledged either, which at the same time means that it did not happen. No Fall = no redemption, why should there be? Which forces have an interest in such a teaching? The fact that, for example, the “masters” also speak of Jesus should not deceive. They have made him one of their own and called him Jesus Sananda, just as they have admitted Mary into their ranks and call her Mother Mary. In this way they came and continue to come toward all those who do not want to break completely with what they learned in church, but who no longer feel at home in their church or religious community either; and who therefore search by other paths for answers that seem more satisfactory to them.
