1356 False whispers.... mindfulness....

March 27, 1940: Book 23

The endeavour of the friends on the other side to keep foreign whisperings away from you is in vain if your will does not resist them at the same time. He who keeps the knowledge of supernatural things hidden from you as long as you humans do not yet have the maturity of soul will certainly regocnize the time when you may be offered such things. And therefore the human being is only then capable of judgement when his spirit unites with the instructing beings in the beyond. Unimaginable concepts make the human being's mind ponder, and the desire for clarification will fill you, yet the human being's spiritual state precludes a sufficient explanation unless spiritual vision introduces the human being to that kingdom.... You must drop all doubts if the lord reveals Himself to you.... but also exercise all caution towards explanations of incomplete spiritual beings. And you can examine this and thus leave yourselves to the judgement trustingly; if what is offered seems invigorating and joyful to you then you know that the lord Himself has sent it to you. But inner dissatisfaction, the feeling of uncertainty, a silent defence or denial of what is offered is always a silent warning from those who only want to convey the purest truth to you and watch over all your thoughts so that they are not misguided. And thus you must always separate the pure truth from that which was certainly received with the best of intentions but offered uncontrollably from the kingdom of the beyond. You must not believe that the beyond reveals itself to people in whom the desire for enlightenment is only focussed on the fate of the departed. To serve the lord in love does not mean to reveal the reward and the horrors of the afterlife and thus, through such descriptions, to determine the human being to the right way of life on earth. If the human being lives in love, his spirit itself will proclaim God's will to him, yet God will not allow anyone who never feels the urge for truth in himself to unlawfully gain insight into the afterlife.... Thus the spirit of the God-truly-seeking person will adopt everything that God Himself wants him to regocnize as truth, and it will therefore be irrelevant and without value what only triggers the slightest rejection in a person.... Remaining in silent reverence towards the divine word and listening to the inner voice guarantees purest truth.... But what is offered to you from another side, do not place in the circle of your contemplations, so that it does not cloud the clear view and hinder the presentation of the pure truth....

Amen
