In the great distance of all the heavenly bodies from each other and from the sun, which constantly feeds them with light and power, the explanation is to be sought for the low resistance which the individual creations put up to each other. As a result, no friction arises, and therefore it is also impossible that one of these creations could be or become light-giving. The fact that light is produced by friction is a law of nature that applies to all creations. The sun, on the other hand, is the mother star, it is the work of creation which has the task of being the giver of warmth and light for all those celestial bodies which originally belonged to the sun. Viewed with earthly eyes, the sun is a body of fire, i.e. people conclude from the light and heat power of the sun's rays that these require a place of origin that is fire in itself. This view is erroneous insofar as there is no precondition for such a source of fire. The atmosphere that surrounds the sun is completely different from that of the earth, and this again triggers natural forces for which man has no understanding because he is unaware of their existence. These natural forces are therefore to a certain extent the originators of the light radiation, if the luminous process is to be explained in earthly terms. However, the result of worldly research does not agree with the truth insofar as man imagines earthly processes, effective to a greater extent, that he absolutely wants to give the light and the luminosity an origin, which he imagines earthly, but which is to be sought in natural forces and laws, about which men lack the knowledge, but which cannot be imparted to them in the state of maturity on earth either. All earthly conceivable preconditions are ruled out and any enlightenment about them is unacceptable to the human being until his spirit is allowed to gain insight into higher spheres.... Only then will it be possible to provide him with information. But as long as man dwells on earth, he is not receptive to this....
