Remembering
The spiritual gift is in my soul now and I must now develop myself to be able to enclose it with my memory. It is a spiritual act that has to be performed. Memory is not only content, it is also a capability. Now I will have to try to use this capability to embower […]
Magnificat
Now I have received the spiritual gift and I must gain the greatness of soul that is necessary to unify her with the cosmic word. The soul must become a garment for the spirit. Here we can feel a resemblance with the ‘Magnificat’ of Maria again: Magnificat anima mea Dominum Et exsultavit spiritus meus in […]
The World Word
In spring we were allowed to live in our senses, where the World-Word speaks in images that we could lead into the depths of our souls. The whole power of thinking became silent, so that it became possible to be aware of these sense-images. The world-wide Word filled the depths of our spirit for the […]
Spiritual Gift
The weaving of the spirit seems to have given me a spiritual gift. For two weeks ago I felt how the spiritual thinking of the world came nearer to me. Now I feel it as a gift, the spirit weaves in me its world-thoughts. But I may not bring this gift outwardly, I have to […]
Veil
I am so far away from my self now that I can feel the weaving of the spirit in the light of the world. It doesn’t appear clearly to me, it isn’t possible to think about it, it seems to be shrouded in mystery, charmed, enchanted. This weaving of the spirit has woven a veil […]
Worldthinking
In this week of summer there comes a turning point in the inner experience. Up till this moment we had to surrender the soul completely to the perception with the senses and by doing so we lost the driving force of our own being. The thinking became dreamlike, had lost its clearness and worked benumbing. […]
The fire-worlds of the Spirit
Perception with the senses is now the most important activity. I have lost my personal thoughts, will and feelings to be surrendered fully to the pure heights of the senses. Now my soul has no more personal contents. Instead of them the flames from the fiery worlds of spirit begin to speak in my soul. […]
St. John
The dedication to the world becomes more profound. The thinking, willing and feeling of the soul were already devoted to the cosmic all. Now it seems possible to deepen the devotion, so that also the deepest divine living powers can be released to a flight into the worldwide all. So all conscious contents of the […]
The sun-hour
The thinking, feeling and will power are in a full surrender to the worldwide cosmic space now, they have been relinquished. In the coming weeks this state is stabilized; in various states of the soul it holds on to its utmost phase, which comes on the 24th of June, the feast of John. Then there […]
A divine being just felt you
Now we approach the summertime. We are getting used to looking outward more and more, and we see how the sum rises higher and higher, how the days grow longer, the nights become shorter. We are not used to feeling how we ourselves accompany the ascending sun, how our feeling powers also ascend into the […]
