2890 Spiritual vision....

September 22, 1943: Book 37

The life-giving stream of power, which has its origin in God, is continuously supplied to all creatures and works of creation in order to ensure their existence. This supply of the flow of strength is a process which does not appear visibly and yet can always and everywhere be felt by its effect, for without God's supply of strength all life would die, all works of creation would disintegrate and everything that exists would cease to exist. But as soon as the human being has attained a certain spiritual maturity he will also be able to see the flow of strength, and he will be able to perceive the changes which take place in the works of creation, he will be able to see through the works of creation and observe the inner processes which take place through the flow of strength; he will be able to recognize the way in which the flow of strength takes place and thus recognize all spiritual activity with his spiritual eye. And his astonishment will find no end, for he sees these currents of power take their start in the spiritual kingdom and their effect comes into effect on earth, he sees an immensely busy activity in the universe, which connects the spiritual with the earthly kingdom and which takes its course in greatest order and regularity. This spiritual seeing through matter can extend to all creations that are accessible to the human eye; but it can also encompass spiritual creations beyond the earthly, as long as the degree of maturity of the seer is very high. Then every connection is clear to him, for nothing is veiled to him anymore, although the soul still dwells in the earthly cover. Yet its earthly life will not last much longer once it has reached this spiritual degree. And a person who has this spiritual vision is also able to clearly and comprehensibly convey his impressions to his fellow human beings, for his degree of maturity enables him to do so but only a few are receptive to it. (22.9.1943) The spiritual seer has full knowledge himself, and that is why he also knows about the connection and the meaning and purpose of the individual works of creation, he also knows about the connection of these with God, and he recognizes the power current, which enlivens and constantly flows through everything, as the source of power, which has its origin in God. This spiritual vision is no longer an earthly state and is therefore only attained by a few, because it would not be beneficial for a person who is not yet mature and fully mature people are rare on earth. Yet in individual cases God already allows this state on earth in order to reveal Himself and His greatness to those who love Him and strive for perfection on earth. Spiritual vision is therefore a glimpse into the spiritual kingdom, into the reign and activity of God, which, however, is difficult to make comprehensible to fellow human beings. For only in a completely detached state can the beholder absorb it, but as soon as he wants to reproduce it earthly, words fail him, for these are supernatural processes for which man has no imagination. It is a magical pulsation, a changing interplay of forces that is indescribably sublime and meaningful and that reveals the wisdom, omnipotence and love of God. It is an image that makes the beholder fall into blissful rapture and pushes him ever closer to God, Who reveals Himself to him in such a great and overwhelming way. And his longing will soon be fulfilled, for the spiritual observer will not remain on earth much longer once he has attained this degree of maturity. For he is only able to communicate himself to very few people.... because a certain degree of maturity is likewise required for understanding.... who, in turn, shall only be spurred on by his descriptions to reach the elevated degree of maturity already on earth, because this will earn him childship to God and make him the most blissful being of light one day in the spiritual kingdom....

amen
