7412 Transmitted light....

September 19, 1959: Book 78

You will feel the light as a blessing if it can illuminate you in earthly life, for your state during embodiment as a human being is darkness.... You are in complete ignorance of things concerning the spiritual kingdom, a state of lack of knowledge is your lot, and thus you move in spiritual darkness until a ray of light from above strikes you and illuminates your thinking. And this ray of light is beneficial, which is felt more by the soul than by the body. For it impels the soul to pay attention to and desire ever more of the light, and then it will become ever brighter within it and the spiritual darkness will depart. A state of ignorance is not very happy because then only worldly thinking fills the human being which, however, only has transient goods as its aim.... But if this state changes into a state of knowledge then the human being's thinking will be turned towards another area, and this thinking will always fill him more the brighter it becomes in him.... But light can only radiate from the source of light, which is God Himself, the eternal light. And what comes from God must also be beneficial, after all, it is a phase of the original state which the human being is to attain again. The light was lost to the being when it turned away from God.... It became darkened in spirit and no longer recognized anything of what it had been able to see through in the fullest light before its apostasy from God.... It gave away the light and became a dark and therefore also unhappy being. Earth time shall now bring the light back to it again if the human being himself does his part, that is, if he opens himself to the ray of light of love which will touch him again and again in earthly life but which requires an open heart in order to become effective in the human being's soul. But then it will illuminate him, for the ray of love-light is of immense strength.... It chases away all darkness, it penetrates into the furthest corner and lets light become which illuminates everything.... he gives the human being knowledge, he becomes knowledgeable and penetrates all spiritual areas which were previously closed to him. And this realization makes him happy, for he now recognizes the meaning and purpose of earthly life, the meaning and purpose of creation, he knows his original state, he knows what he had been, what he is and what he shall become again and that the short earthly life was given to him for this purpose.... And therefore the human being on earth should first strive to become light in him. He should have the desire within himself to receive information about the purpose of life, he should desire the truth.... For then he will desire light. And as soon as he desires light it will also shine for him and he will soon be bright of spirit, his thinking will be guided correctly and his thinking will make him happy and satisfy him because he feels that he is filled with truth and that a cover has fallen off him which previously encumbered him, under which he felt uncomfortable and which he considers a grace to lose, a gift from God which he did not deserve. To stand in the light of truth is also an undeserved gift of grace from God, but the human being can acquire it himself if only he sincerely desires it, if the state of ignorance is not enough for him and he would like to exchange it for a state of knowledge of truth. Then a light will certainly be poured into his heart and this light will spread and brightly illuminate everything. For God does not want darkness, He wants to spread light so that His living creations will become blissfully happy, for only those who walk in the light take their pilgrimage on earth seriously, they strive towards the eternal light, and they will certainly reach their aim because the eternal light illuminates the path they have to take.... because the spirit of God, Who Himself is the Light from eternity, now guides them....

Amen
