Dear ones,

here comes the PDF “How We Are Manipulated.” I hope you enjoy reading it.

With love,

Hans

Dear fellow travelers on the upward path,

I am telling you nothing new when I say that God has never remained silent. Not for eternity. Even though we were taught — or at least people tried to teach us — that He sits silently enthroned in some distant heavens. And that the human being, for example in prayer, may indeed speak to Him, but the reverse — that God speaks directly within the human being and to human beings — is not possible; apart from a few exceptions, because the “old prophets” could not and cannot be ignored.

The great majority of you know better. Again and again He sent people to earth, to their fellow human beings, through whom He proclaimed what was suppressed or presented as false teaching by church authorities, often in close connection with rulers and leaders of the state. Wherever possible, the fact that God speaks to human beings was forcibly suppressed. We need only think of the Middle Ages, the “high period” of coercion and lack of freedom.

Those times are over, but what has remained is the belief drilled into people over many centuries that God is a silent God in whom one should indeed believe and to whom one should pray — but that He lives within the human being, and that one need only close one’s eyes and go within in order to be immediately with Him: very few know, believe, and practice this.

Just imagine that God, who is infinite love and has every possibility, lives in the same house as you. Is it really conceivable and logical that He and you would never try to discuss everything with one another?

Unfortunately, even with the most intensive church membership, the relationship therefore remains one that rarely or never has the intimacy possible, and often found, between an earthly father (the same applies to the mother) and his earthly child.

God did not and does not intend it this way. What happened for things to come this far? Who had and still has a “hand in it”?

If we look back: Despite all resistance, He repeatedly succeeded in speaking through people to people, especially in recent centuries. We need only think of Jakob Lorber and Swedenborg. Whoever followed the revelations of recent centuries attentively (and did not merely read them) will have noticed that there has been a continual increase in their depth and content. That is only logical, for God does not repeat His fundamental truths “for all eternity,” at least not when and not for those who already possess a certain degree of insight and a corresponding overview.

His instructions and enlightenment have continually deepened. After all, His concern is that we (provided we truly want it) begin to put His teachings into practice and not merely “store” them in our heads. In doing so we encounter the fact that although we are of good will and make renewed efforts again and again, we also repeatedly come to a standstill or fail to progress as we wish. Surely all of us know this.

Apparently “up there” I took on the task of showing all who are interested the next and further steps (which naturally, according to my possibilities, I must first have tried to put into practice myself with at least more or less success), and what this might look like in the practice of daily life. Then one leaves theory behind, or rather takes it as a foundation, and tries to practice what one knows.

In doing so I encountered the difficulties familiar to all of us: good will and love for the Father and for Jesus Christ were there, but there was also continual “interference” aimed at preventing us from putting this into practice in daily life. Then finally came the “illumination”: We know too little about the influences of Sadhana/Lucifer. We do not know that he is continually around us, quite like our guardian angels, only on another level. And that he can influence us in fractions of a second — faster than we can think — when the conditions for it are present within us. This did not make things any easier, but at least I now knew the background.

The Father said about this:

Your time is not only serious; it is very, very serious! You have never yet experienced a time more difficult for you than the one that lies ahead. Do you believe Me? Then the “alarm bells should be ringing” within you now, for I do not say this to frighten you or make you afraid. I say it because I want to help and admonish you to consider what this means for you. And that it is not enough simply to continue as you have in the past.

Everything, My beloved, is evolution. Nothing remains as it once was. This applies to everything I have created and will yet create. Your earth, indeed your entire material cosmos, is infinitely vast and large in your eyes, but it is “tiny” in relation to My creation. It arose only as a consequence of the Fall, and it will pass away again, as will the worlds outside heaven, because I bring everything back to Me. When will that be? Your powers of imagination are insufficient to grasp such spans of time.

If you use your intellect and draw the right conclusions, you will recognize that in recent decades there has been a change in your planet and your living conditions unlike anything that existed before. Do you want to extrapolate? Then try in thought, in your imagination, to project this development forward. In your picture, will everything become “normal” again? Will it develop back toward order, mutual help, and peace? What conclusions do you reach? Are they grounded in your fear and therefore suppressed? Or do you build upon trust in Me, that despite everything I know how to guide those who entrust themselves to Me with a loving heart?

My sons and daughters! I am. But I was alone. That was “infinitely long ago.” Therefore out of Myself I created the first creatures, who were like Me but not equal to Me. For example, they all lacked and still lack omnipresence, which belongs to Me alone. And nevertheless they possessed and possess powers unimaginable to you. Thus “in the course of time” (which, however, does not exist with Me or in the beyond) the subtle worlds filled up — your true home with Me, from which everyone comes and to which everyone will return, regardless of what he is doing at present and regardless of where he is staying.

Then came the “Fall” known to you, and Sadhana/Lucifer and his followers (more correctly it would be “her” followers, for Sadhana/Lucifer is a female being, but I will leave it as it has become customary for you) had to leave the heavens because their energetic vibration no longer corresponded to that of the heavens. At the end of the Fall matter arose, which is nothing other than condensed energy.

Every spiritual being from the beyond can incarnate on earth, which means — to put it in your language — both the good and the evil. The problem for you is that your earthly eyes are held back and you cannot recognize what is happening around you. Therefore it was easy for the opposing side to seduce you into assuming there is no invisible world. Yet it is immediately around you! And that makes the matter so dangerous for you.

The devil, as you call Sadhana, succeeded through influencing your church leaders in making people somehow believe that he exists; but at the same time he and his followers were banished into a distant, unspecified hell. No assumption could be more wrong!

Because he receives no energy from Me for what he does except a minimum of sustaining energy, without which he would not exist, he urgently depends on energy. Where does he get it? From human beings. And now and then, as each of you can confirm, from you too.

I have not told most of you much that is new with My words. What very few know, however, is this: How does he obtain energy? And now and then your energy as well?

His method is extremely subtle and, without My enlightenment, impossible for you to see through.

First put aside your idea that he is far away in some unspecified hell. He himself placed this opinion, which became a general assumption, into the minds of those whom he knew had the possibility of spreading this false teaching.

Then: Do not underestimate him! He was near My heart, endowed with a consciousness, knowledge, and “overview” of which you do not understand even the faintest thing. Which means: In subtlety and overview he is far, far superior to you. And he knows you. He can influence you when the conditions for this are present within you.

And finally: He must withdraw from you when you call upon Me, when you live with Me. It is true that now and then he still gets through to you even then, but he has nothing to set against My power, the power of Christ within you, and must withdraw at once when you come to Me.

So he works unrecognized, quietly, in the invisible realm. Do you know how he proceeds?

Do you know where he begins with human beings? Do you know where he begins with you? You all know the law that like attracts like. And you also know the law of correspondence. There must therefore be an energetic weakness of the soul within a person in order for that person to be influenced. It need not be anything great or terrible at all. That would be too obvious. But the many small things over which the human being is all too willing and quick to pass are the points of entry.

So it is not primarily a matter of seducing people into evil. It is enough for him, at least at the beginning, to prevent you from doing good. That is often his point of entry. Especially in your time, he knows how to fill your hours and days with interesting offers, and your technology suits him very well in this. After the first small steps, he then tries the next larger steps.

Do you notice the subtlety?

What can you do against it? How can you protect yourselves, if you wish to do so?

At this point a “revelation” on your part takes place. For here you can — and must? — recognize how serious you are about doing something about your faults. Admittedly, a little work is connected with this. But the good thing is: You do not have to do this work, which makes you ever stronger, alone.

I, your God within you, am the One who stands at your side. And not only that: I take a large part of your remaining burdens from you — because I love you. But I respect your free will, which means you must come to Me of your own free will. And the more sincere your desire is to change something within yourselves with Me, the sooner I can fulfill this desire.

In this way I take part of your burden from you, but as a rule not all of it. For you are to grow; you are to become strong. And you succeed best with Me at your side, but not by My “doing the work for you.” (A little smile.)

The opposing side therefore makes use of your faults and weaknesses in order to manipulate you. And according to the law that like attracts like, only what is meant for you can come toward you. Sadhana makes use of the weak points in your soul and presents to you what, from her point of view, represents the “right” step for you in order to strengthen her influence.

Do you now understand why self-knowledge is so important? But do not fall into the error of applying this principle of insight to your neighbor. That is his affair! Your affair is to decide whether you want to come closer to My heart or not. At a “yes,” heaven rejoices, and all your friends will stand by you in many situations with which you will then be confronted. That is how it is, My sons and daughters. Believe Me …😃

There is one more thing I want to lay upon your heart. I have enlightened you about the methods of evil because you know little or nothing about them. But Sadhana too is a child of My heart, whom I love just as I love all My children. The fact that I have warned you does not mean that you should now think or speak negatively about her. She is and remains your sister! Remember this and do not fall into the error of condemning her with your knowledge: She is your sister.

Amen
