Unmasking - Soul-Mankind

Soul-Man, Soul-Mankind

[QUOTING]

In the Bible we find a description of the Coming Again of Christ, but unfortunately, people do not interpret that Coming Again in the same way. Some understand what is said about it in the Holy Language strictly and literally' others understand it in a merely symbolical sense. But it is a relatively very small group who are able to behold it in the true sense.

This true sense of the Holy Language of all times has different aspects. Perhaps you know of the real liberation of mankind! So, this way is not occult, nor is it mystic. We do not seek or wish contact with, nor a life on the other side.

In the first place, we try to obtain a real, living state of soul; we try to obtain the birth of a new soul. And that new soul having been born, a soul-body is built on the basis of that soul-nucleus; a personality of the soul which the bible also indicates as the Golden Wedding Garment.

The soul-man who knows how to build such a wedding-garment, such a personality of the soul, gets into communication with the Original Life, with the True Humanity, with the Divinity of the Beginning, with the True Spirit. Such a man goes from eternity to eternity, a way which has nothing whatever to do with 'the other side', with the reflection-sphere; and, at a given moment, neither with the material-sphere of duality, so that, at a certain moment, he can put the entire old personality aside, in order to go forward in the Golden Wedding Garment, in the personality of the soul.

However, long before the absoluteness of that soul-body has come true, the growing soul-man has already met the Great Soul-Man the Holy Language speaks of, the Soul-Prince, one of the prototypes of soul-mankind: the Christ. When the awakened soul-man comes to behold the soul-mankind bodily, then Christ has come again for him.

Now, do get a clear picture of all this! The Gnosis always makes itself known to dualistic mankind. Why? In order to show the dualistic, fallen man the way to soul-mankind, the way to the soul-world. You have been born to find that way, to understand that way and to go that way. That is the one purpose of your life!

The Gnosis meets us in order to show us the way to the soul-world. Without that way, the human existence is of no use whatever.

This makes it clear that, if mankind does not wish to go that way and wants to establish an earthly kingdom (be it on this side of the veil, or in the land beyond the veil), something is going to happen with mankind.

May we repeat it: Mankind comes into being in this dualistic world in order to find the way back to the soul-mankind! In case it does not wish to go that way, the goal is missed and mankind is broken off. That is the cause of death! But if man finds the way to the soul-world, he conquers death completely. He who wins the soul, conquers death and may say after Paul: 'Death, where is thy sting, hell where is thy victory?'.
But when man does not go the way to soul-mankind, then -- thanks to God -- the material body is disintegrated. Then it is caught by death. Why? In order to give the microcosm a chance to admit another personality into the system, so that this personality may avail itself of the possibility to re-find the way back to the House of the Father. When we do not find the way to the Domain of the Soul in the direct sense, then death may rightly be called a blessing, an intervention for the purpose of mankind's salvation.

Therefore, you can now understand that -- in case mankind, self-willed, tries to maintain itself, seeking after a continued life and, when this proves to be impossible, clings to the land beyond the veil -- enormous tensions accumulate; tensions caused by the infringement of the most elementary laws of nature; tensions which will cause the world to explode at a given moment.

We repeat: when one tries to realize an earthly kingdom on this or the other side, then something is going to happen to mankind. Then, mankind's life is speeding to the end; then life, as it goes, is demolished by the irresistible workings of the fundamental laws of nature, in both the spheres of dualistic existence.

On the one hand, the real meaning of the Coming Again of Christ is: the finding of the Soul-Prince on the path of soul-humanity; on the other hand -- when in a certain period a large group of people are really standing on that path -- it means the development of a formidable calamity-status for the other part of mankind. A crisis comes about, an enormous explosion of the tensions which the Holy Language calls 'The Judgement': the Judgement of God.

Under the spell of this threatening calamity and the lack of light-ether connected with it, the reflection-sphere hierarchy is staging the 'Great Play' against which The Shadow of the Coming Events gives such a serious warning to everybody who is willing to listen.

But, at the same time, the disaster is undeniable: as a discharge of the existing and still increasing unnatural tensions.

We shall try to explain what we must understand the disaster and its consequences to be, and also investigate whether, in our present days, we can already see something of the catastrophe. For, it is necessary that we should be fully informed, in order that we may be able to behave, as knowing people, in the correct manner with regard to the Great Aim of our life and shall not go astray by a wrong insight which so often is the cause of totally wrong and absolutely fatal reactions.
