2883 Thoughts.... power from the spiritual realm....

September 15, 1943: Book 37

The pure spiritual exchange of thoughts with knowledgeable forces in the beyond produces extremely valuable results which enrich the human being's knowledge, thus placing him into a state of cognition. And therefore he has already achieved spiritual progress, for knowledge is already a state of light, it makes happy and at the same time enables spiritual work. The human being can transfer his knowledge to his fellow human being and do something which requires love for his fellow human being. And every act of love brings him spiritual maturity. This is why the forces of light constantly try to stay in contact with people in order to bring them knowledge, for they themselves know about the dark state. And thus they also know how it can best be remedied.... through love and by consciously accepting the divine word offered to them by the beings of light. Every human being is surrounded by beings of light which try to direct his thoughts such that they aim towards God and His reign and activity. If the human being accepts the thought currents flowing to him then he will very soon call wisdom his own which was imparted to him from the kingdom of the beyond and which he also convincingly accepts as truth. Every human being can sense these streams of thought, but they are rarely heeded and rarely do people realize where the thoughts come from and what they actually are. They do not regard them as an expression of the power of spiritual beings and therefore do not attach the right value to them. They believe themselves to be the originators of the thoughts and do not know that they only accept or reject the thoughts flowing to them through their free will, but that they first have to be brought to them by spiritual beings and want to be taken up before they can become the human being's own thought material. The human being as such would not be able to let a thought arise since this is spiritual strength which, however, is not yet available to him to the extent that he can generate thoughts himself. In a manner of speaking, he first borrows the strength from the spiritual kingdom, from where it is also willingly offered to him, and through this supply of strength he should mature spiritually, i.e., the knowledge offered to him mentally should lead him to realization and the right realization should let him find the path upwards through consciously striving for perfection. Without this knowledge he will never be able to develop himself upwards, and the knowledge is only the result of his thoughts which are conveyed to him by spiritual beings. It is a person's free will to seize the thoughts, to dwell on them, to request further thoughts through questions and thereby acquire spiritual wealth or to reject them immediately and not pay attention to them.... But he also has to answer for this free will, for he then leaves the power flowing towards him unused and his knowledge, his insight, will now be accordingly. The spiritual beings constantly make an effort for people, they repeatedly try to make themselves heard by them and constantly impose themselves on them. Yet the human being cannot be forced to accept the thoughts and therefore people have very different degrees of knowledge depending on their will. Yet the same knowledge is available to all people as soon as they merely abandon themselves to the spiritual forces and increase their thoughts, which is offered to them through the love of the knowing beings....
