| sown, do you say that fate is at work. Many people think that having free will means | 18 FREE WILL |
| the technical difficulty increases, for you have to work your way back step by step to the | 18 FREE WILL |
| cannot happen very easily. But when people seriously work on the mystic path, the time comes when | 18 FREE WILL |
| you learn and do what alone matters, namely work for self-knowledge, self-purification, and utter self-honesty, then the | 19 JESUS CHRIST |

| reports coming in from spirits involved with this work, each subject is decided upon, and so are | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| be considered. It is a type of bookkeeping work, if I may call it that, where many | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| and weighed. You have no idea how much work is involved in our world regarding this community | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| freedom given to them by God. These laws work in cycles which have to close; whatever happens | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| these cycles follow their course and the laws work in such a way that ultimately everything having | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| partner. This is not so. Things do not work out this way in Absolute Reality. No matter | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| you have no spiritual enlightenment, you have to work spiritually to regain glimpses of this light. The | 21 THE FALL |
| this subject to my friends with whom I work privately, and I have also treated it occasionally | 21 THE FALL |
| or she may receive the necessary material to work with. It may be through a church, or | 21 THE FALL |
| my friends. The laws of the divine world work too accurately for that. The problem is much | 21 THE FALL |
| The laws of nature and the universe must work alike for good or for evil, or for | 22 SALVATION |
| of using their powers to arrange and to work for the Plan of Salvation. And this plan | 22 SALVATION |
| had to be worked out, how painstaking this work was so that everything would accord with the | 22 SALVATION |
| dominion of Lucifer as long as the salvation work in this respect was not finished. By the | 22 SALVATION |
| prove His love by His great sacrifice and work, not only to all the other fallen creatures | 22 SALVATION |
| refine themselves a little bit, then the real work of self-finding and self-purification begins, and for this | 22 SALVATION |
| all these possibilities when the time comes, to work from our end. Now it sometimes happens that | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| if the free will of the people would work to avoid this particular direction, then this would | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| that dies after two days. Why all this work for nothing? ANSWER: Oh, the work is not | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| all this work for nothing? ANSWER: Oh, the work is not for nothing. The mother has to | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| of tests and unhappy occurrences are. But the work is not for nothing, for all this is | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| even to those friends who come privately to work with me. This will not be a waste | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| begin, and what is involved in doing the work. Moreover, I want to tell you before I | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| lower self is lazy and never wants to work. Yet it requires work to face what is | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| and never wants to work. Yet it requires work to face what is in you, especially when | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| are busy on this first half of the work that is necessary. You can reach perfection only | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| will take a long time and years of work. Then very gradually the times of trial will | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| is on the path will, after some successful work, understand that each testing and each time of | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| a period of at least two years of work in this manner, provided you do not work | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| work in this manner, provided you do not work half-heartedly. In other words, and speaking symbolically, your | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| say to you truly, do not postpone this work for another life. It will not be easier | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| can never get away with not doing the work, for it has to be done. No matter | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| open eyes: distinguish the three necessary types of work involved in purifying yourself on this path. One | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| that makes it so hard for you to work diligently on your path, or tackle whatever else | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| in your way quite directly, for instance to work daily on your quota of self-observation and meditation | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| detached way. By doing so, you will not work directly on your lack of love or faith | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| live and laugh and enjoy themselves -- and work. Spirits in the higher realms do all that | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| but how all these various trends and currents work, what plays into the lower self or what | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| consciously you only know your good will to work in the right direction. This realization is the | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| others, I have reached perfection. If in the work on this path I should find out that | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| never done before. Thus you will do better work in your profession; you will get more benefit | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| are the results I can promise if you work spiritually in the way I am showing you | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| and logically that this path cannot help but work out because it is based on the law | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| manifests in beautiful prayer and meditation. But the work has to be done too. What is the | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| has to be done too. What is the work? This is the work, my friends. To master | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| too. What is the work? This is the work, my friends. To master your lower self is | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| friends. To master your lower self is the work that Jesus meant mainly. To do good to | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| that constantly draws you away from this inner work. Here are thoughts I could observe in some | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| personally, and therefore it is important that you work with them. Often it may be very necessary | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| the manner in which each of you can work on this path. But I will give you | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| your own plan. You do not have to work according to my words to the letter; certain | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| wonder how to find the proper person to work with, I advise you to pray for guidance | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| a week to discuss things pertaining to your work on this path. For, in many ways, it | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| it is very important not to do this work completely alone. In the first place, you then | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| are always alone, no matter how hard they work, no matter how intelligently they read or study | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| family may not share your interest in this work, but they still know you very well and | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| one day to the next. It means constant work, and after some time of regular work each | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| constant work, and after some time of regular work each day, let us say for only half | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
