| ethics and morality. So for that stage the development of the intellect fulfilled its function. And the | 224 CREATIVE EMPTINESS |
| emphasis must change in different phases of human development. In one period, people need to gather their | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| individual. In each phase a higher level of development is reached, so that what was gained through | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| learned in group relating can then further individual development. I will now give a brief, somewhat simplified | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| negative reason: fear of an enemy. As human development proceeds further, getting along with others will no | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| between the self and others. In the early development of consciousness this happened in a very primitive | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| friends, even the negative manifestation of the lower development -- hostility toward the other, warfare -- can | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| be brought into the new phase of the development of group consciousness. Once again you see here | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| same spiral movement exists, of course, in the development of humanity as a whole. The spiral always | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| on ever deeper, or higher, levels: higher in development, deeper in consciousness. Let us look at an | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| therefore a great mistake to think of this development in either/or terms. There are those who believe | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| not, you concentrate first on one form of development, then on the other. So, for example, a | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| for the reverse. There are periods when group development is essential for the development both of the | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| periods when group development is essential for the development both of the individual and humanity as a | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| -- is ready for an alternation, when its development approaches the switching point, there are always strong | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| since humanity by and large resists this natural development, those who follow it necessarily separate from those | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| consciously or intuitively -- with the movement and development of consciousness are regressive and try to halt | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| and categories. There are three major phases of development in this respect. Both as a whole, and | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| emphasis is on individuation. The third phase of development comes when individuals have developed full self-realization and | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| found his or her autonomy. In the overall development the phases are never that clearly defined. They | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |
| alone you could hardly accomplish the task of development. But you need to be aware of your | 225 EVOLUTIONARY STAGES OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS |

| cannot also be immediately applied to your personal development, your growth, your self-confrontation, and your immediate microcosm | 226 APPROACH TO SELF -- SELF-FORGIVENESS WITHOUT CONDONING THE LOWER SELF |
| often requires a great deal of time and development before the inner meaning of such a crisis | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |

| of human beings who at this stage of development are not ready to undergo the necessary discipline | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| and does not follow its seed plan, its development has to proceed differently from the development of | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| its development has to proceed differently from the development of those aspects of the planetary consciousness that | 227 CHANGE FROM OUTER TO INNER LAWS IN THE NEW AGE |
| humanity was in a very primitive state of development. Distrust of anything other than the self was | 229 WOMAN AND MAN IN THE NEW AGE |
| that apply equally to both sexes emerged as development progressed. Yet men -- and often women as | 229 WOMAN AND MAN IN THE NEW AGE |
| humanity's consciousness you find all these stages of development. The highest form may already exist in your | 229 WOMAN AND MAN IN THE NEW AGE |
| and energy occurs. On the human level of development this break occurs, for example, with death. But | 230 THE UNIVERSALITY OF CHANGE -- REINCARNATIVE PROCESS IN THE SAME LIFE SPAN |
| who is truly on a path of accelerated development can, and frequently does, literally reincarnate in the | 230 THE UNIVERSALITY OF CHANGE -- REINCARNATIVE PROCESS IN THE SAME LIFE SPAN |
| can now come to the fore. With less development, these potentialities would remain to be expressed only | 230 THE UNIVERSALITY OF CHANGE -- REINCARNATIVE PROCESS IN THE SAME LIFE SPAN |
| caliber of consciousness, of purity, of love, of development. It is of such high frequency that it | 230 THE UNIVERSALITY OF CHANGE -- REINCARNATIVE PROCESS IN THE SAME LIFE SPAN |

| sphere would remain at its present level of development, while its inhabitants would rise up. This is | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| Much more is yet to come. Your own development will make you capable of sustaining the highest | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| between your human consciousness and entities of high development, whose force and sphere of influence merge with | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| full of energy. Humankind at this stage of development is becoming increasingly aware of energy and its | 233 THE POWER OF THE WORD |
| is produced from other states of consciousness and development. The airpocket you live in represents your present | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| was accepted. Humanity, at that point in its development, had to consider these principles intellectually at first | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| a necessary beginning at a certain stage of development. It is always so: first a new idea | 234 PERFECTION, IMMORTALITY, OMNIPOTENCE |
| a specific spiral configuration that applies to the development of your soul in this respect. In the | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| respect. In the very early stages of the development of a human consciousness, the states of expansion | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| may need, in any given phase of your development, to expand. But for the expansion to be | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| universal consciousness. In your own personal lives the development of one single quality has a different rhythm | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| has a different rhythm and timing than the development of another quality. And even the same quality | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| So there is a constant interchange. When the development is harmonious, it makes a beautiful tune. There | 235 THE ANATOMY OF CONTRACTION |
| as well as in terms of your own development, cannot be measured in human concepts. I can | 237 LEADERSHIP -- THE ART OF TRANSCENDING FRUSTRATION |
| that you are indeed much further in your development and no longer in a position in which | 237 LEADERSHIP -- THE ART OF TRANSCENDING FRUSTRATION |
| humanity is becoming ready for the next step. Development on the conscious plane can open certain channels | 238 THE PULSE OF LIFE ON ALL LEVELS OF MANIFESTATION |
| vitalize it. In the present stage of humanity's development, when even in the best of circumstances only | 238 THE PULSE OF LIFE ON ALL LEVELS OF MANIFESTATION |
| already exists stems from a certain level of development that you all have in common, no matter | 241 DYNAMICS OF MOVEMENT AND RESISTANCE TO ITS NATURE |

| As your stature grows due to your ongoing development, so does the sphere of your influence and | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| are not equal in their expression, in their development and will direction, in the choices they make | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| the divergence and varieties of human expression and development. Fairness, uniformity, conformism supersede free unfoldment and expression | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |

| are yet another facet of the maturing, the development, of humankind. It is also easier today to | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| through all these various phases and stages of development. Just like you, as individuals in purification, find | 242 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF POLITICAL SYSTEMS |
| on the lowest level of the scale of development of consciousness there is no cause and effect | 245 CAUSE AND EFFECT ON VARIOUS LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| were previously considered nonexistent. On the crest of development, where consciousness has become totally God-infused, cause and | 245 CAUSE AND EFFECT ON VARIOUS LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| the less obvious levels. On this path, the development of this perception is very strongly emphasized and | 245 CAUSE AND EFFECT ON VARIOUS LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| to perceive. But as you progress in your development and raise your consciousness, you will see that | 245 CAUSE AND EFFECT ON VARIOUS LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| very much connected to time. Your state of development creates a corresponding reality. This reality contains three | 245 CAUSE AND EFFECT ON VARIOUS LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| and use them as indispensable tools for the development of your soul. For example, if you do | 245 CAUSE AND EFFECT ON VARIOUS LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS |
| The same spiral movement exists in the personal development and growth process of each individual. You cannot | 246 TRADITION: ITS DIVINE AND DISTORTED ASPECTS |
| aim of this path is to effect personal development to the utmost of the individual's potential, on | 246 TRADITION: ITS DIVINE AND DISTORTED ASPECTS |
| interfacing, without the inclusion of all these levels, development would be lopsided and would therefore finally come | 246 TRADITION: ITS DIVINE AND DISTORTED ASPECTS |
| halt. The aim of this path is a development of consciousness that is almost unprecedented. But in | 246 TRADITION: ITS DIVINE AND DISTORTED ASPECTS |
| by step, those who want to obstruct this development. When you look back on the material I | 246 TRADITION: ITS DIVINE AND DISTORTED ASPECTS |

| would simply have become an extension in the development of Judaism, whether or not a new name | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| unintelligent to believe that along the scale of development there exist beings who manifest more or less | 248 THREE PRINCIPLES OF THE FORCES OF EVIL -- PERSONIFICATION OF EVIL |

| develop organically, for human language reflects the organic development of humanity as a whole. You have experienced | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| a new light at this state of your development, is the pain of injustice. This type of | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| as the one you are choosing for your development and growth, one that goes into these depths | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| manifest on this level of reality. Expansion, growth, development -- all these terms mean only one thing | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| when one side outweighs the other. In the development of an individual, as well as that of | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| or, in other terms, the third level of development, that of nurturing others -- needs to go | 250 INNER AWARENESS OF GRACE -- EXPOSING THE DEFICIT |
| longing of every soul, consciously or unconsciously. The development of the institution of marriage is significant from | 251 THE EVOLUTION AND SPIRITUAL MEANING OF MARRIAGE -- NEW AGE MARRIAGE |
| eros, through the power of mutuality in soul development and commitment to each other, through personal purification | 251 THE EVOLUTION AND SPIRITUAL MEANING OF MARRIAGE -- NEW AGE MARRIAGE |
| in stature. This happens through a process of development over many incarnations. The real sinfulness of the | 251 THE EVOLUTION AND SPIRITUAL MEANING OF MARRIAGE -- NEW AGE MARRIAGE |
| personalities have reached a high degree of inner development and purification. Once you realize that sexual fusion | 251 THE EVOLUTION AND SPIRITUAL MEANING OF MARRIAGE -- NEW AGE MARRIAGE |

| have emptied yourself, the dynamic process of soul development can be shared much more easily. The art | 252 PRIVACY AND SECRECY |

| life, all is spirit. The human course of development is constituted differently from other life forms on | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| has now reached a point in its overall development when it needs such help so as to | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| continuity you have gained through your growth and development? The break in consciousness can be avoided in | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| way. This is not always possible, but sometimes development proceeds very fast and well when this opportunity | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| make use of this possibility. Some lack the development and therefore the understanding. Others have the capacity | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| their potential. Another manifestation of the acceleration in development is exactly what I explained in this lecture | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| give your best to your own truth and development and to the task of which you are | 255 THE BIRTHING PROCESS -- COSMIC PULSE |
| as such. But when a certain point of development and purification is reached, the new vision awakens | 256 INNER SPACE, FOCUSED EMPTINESS |
| unrealistic, for it may take many incarnations of development before a human being can come anywhere near | 256 INNER SPACE, FOCUSED EMPTINESS |
| path. And, after a certain point in your development, it can be helped along by focusing on | 256 INNER SPACE, FOCUSED EMPTINESS |
| manifestation may indeed be necessary for a total development to take place. This applies to the individual | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| of highly developed consciousness. To the degree that development of spirit exists, the ability to communicate, to | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| and appropriately also exists. To the degree that development is still impaired, the ability to communicate is | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |

| friends, technology is not in opposition to spiritual development and to spiritual life. However, it is often | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| Similarly, a child in an early stage of development does not really know that it is hurt | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |

| collective consciousness, the great whole. Individual values and development can only be measured by interaction with others | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| of humankind to participate in the drama of development. Viewing world events with this understanding is important | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
| and again I show you parallels between the development of the individual and of the planet. All | 257 ASPECTS OF THE NEW DIVINE INFLUX: COMMUNICATION, GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS, EXPOSURE |
