Spiritual Human Nature

Spiritual Human nature is invisible and unfathomable.  It is time and space beyond time and space. The soul is both the portal and the foundation, the temporal and the eternal. Just as one's soul knows like soul, so the soul in knowing nature confirms itself and seeks further the powers of its own creation. The forming of the I of creation is at the same time the I of destruction. Why? Because this I is ever dying, and loves death in that it becomes again, as it discovers its unfathomable nature.

And so the wise have said, the souls that seek love will find it, the soul that seeks knowledge of itself will find the fields of the soul being nature.

“Humanity has no other alternative before it today than either to learn again about the whole web of natural and cosmic connections, or to let both nature and humanity degenerate and die out. As in the past it is imperative that our knowledge should penetrate to the actual structure of Nature.” —Rudolf Steiner, Koberwitz, 1924

Spiritual Wisdom

Spiritual wisdom is more ancient than anything present in the physical for it comes from the Time before the world was made.

Only a person with an awakened soul can know this as a truth.

In another place Paracelsus says, "Man derives his spirit from the constellations (fixed stars), his soul from the planets, and his body from the elements." Paracelsus 


Stepping Out

It takes courage to step out from the pack and seek your own destiny.

Symbols

Symbols are the language of Master Teachers. Why? The world is a symbol where once stood gods and goddesses. Masters converse with gods and goddesses where others see only the symbol and speak with nothing.
