So it is important for you, my dear ones, to recognize that many of the events in your life which seem to repeat themselves were chosen and planned by you when you still had your wider vision, before matter enveloped your spirit.

It will be helpful for you to know this. A very ambitious spirit may sometimes even ask for a particularly difficult destiny, knowing clearly in the state of freedom from matter that the pain to be suffered is little and of short duration in comparison to the gain. This should give you food for thought.

T]here are a variety of possible causes for world weariness. Of course the yearning for God and perfection plays a role here too whether consciously or not, as well as the nostalgia for one’s true spiritual home that dwells in every human being.

For here on earth you are only visitors, it is not your true home.

But that is never the main reason for the indefinable longing. Its background is more complex, and this is what I want to talk about now.

How far along is any individual in this respect?

Is anyone willing to give something up for the sake of another? Ask yourself: “Do I want happiness for my own sake, or is this the second consideration?” Can you address God and say, “Of course I cannot fool you, just as I cannot fool myself.

True, I want to be happy. But also when I obtain this happiness, I want to maintain it by becoming a connecting link.

I have said it before, but I want to repeat it: Every human being, not only a medium, can and should have personal contact with God’s world. Everybody can have it! But the conditions have to be met.

When God’s spirits speak to you through a medium, they never want to turn you into some puppet who is dependent on them.

Yes, there are unaligned spirits—and I am not even talking about the dark ones—who would gladly give you instructions about what to do or not do; this would give them power and flatter their vanity.

Those who have made the decision and given themselves into the hands of God immediately sense what is happening within. The first reaction is a great relief and an inward joy that for a while completely takes possession of one. This wonderful feeling, though, does not stay with you forever. Hearing this, you could easily conclude, at least in your feelings, that if the heaviness and unpleasantness is likely to return, there is no point in making the decision in the first place.

My dear friends, today I would like to speak about prayer and meditation. What is the difference between the two? Many people are not quite clear about it.

It is always a matter of agreeing upon the meaning of terms.

I should like to make the following distinction: Prayer is a preliminary step to meditation. Prayer is a matter of thinking, meditation is prayer with feeling, it engages the soul forces as compared to the thinking forces.

It is generally difficult to understand the real meaning of the teaching that the Kingdom of God is within, just as Hell is within, too.

You imagine that this refers to a mood and therefore to some unreal thing that cannot be grasped.

People only take for real what they can see and touch; feeling states cannot be seen or touched.

Deep within the heart of each human being is the longing for happiness.

Now what is happiness? If you ask different people, you will receive different answers.

The spiritually immature, after thinking about it for some time, will say, perhaps, that if they had this or that fulfillment or a worry eliminated they would be happy.

One hears people say again and again, “If God exists, and there is indeed a divine order, how can it be that so many terrible things happen on earth?

” You all know, you have all learned that human beings forge their own destinies.

That you have to carry such heavy burdens is the result of breaking spiritual laws, often unconsciously.
