The Sign of the Son of Man

[QUOTING]

We will now go further into the results and the consequences of the new state of life that originates from the new state of consciousness.

Let us assume that after many thorough preparations the new electromagnetic fluid of the Gnosis becomes part of us. This will be the result of our application of the fivefold Universal Gnosis. Firstly: pure insight. Secondly: true yearning for salvation. Thirdly: complete self-surrender. These three define the quality and the magic of our state-of-faith. This leads to, fourthly: the new attitude of life which, owing to its magic and quality, results in the opening of our personality to the imperishable light of the Gnosis. The result if this is, fifthly: our admission into the New Life Field and the great process of regeneration, Transfiguration, begins.

As soon as the new consciousness fluid pours into the head sanctuary, it becomes visible in a clear, shining light. The Bible speaks of "the sign of the Son of Man" because this consciousness fire is the true, Original Human Fire. It radiates outwardly when the Original astral fire can be inhaled by the brain-system and the seven cerebral cavities are filled with it. The focus of this radiation is formed at the place mentioned, behind the frontal bone. This point is the sign of the Son of Man.

As soon as this sign starts radiating, the total transformation of your entire nature, indicated by the Christ as "the rebirth by water and spirit", takes place. First, there is the transfiguration of the soul. Second, owing to this, a whole series of new consciousness-abilities are going to develop. The nature of the astral fire that touches us defines our entire state-of-being. Body, thinking, etheric vehicle, state-of-desire, blood, nerve-fluid, in short the entire state-of-being is defined by and grows out of the consciousness-fire that glows within you. Therefore, when that fire is renewed, the result must be an entire change of being.

One aspect of such a change is a completely different consciousness faculty which, thirdly, results in a different sensory state. For your sensory faculties also have their basis in the head sanctuary. This new sensory state will lead to a wonderful series of events in your life. Fourthly, a modification develops in the cell structure of all the cell groups of your body, owing to which, as the Bible expresses it, "the old vesture of matter is swallowed up in victory" and replaced by a personality structure which harmonizes with the New Soul-State. Thus, fifthly, death is completely conquered. In fact, this entails disappearance out of the old field of nature.
