| sometimes even several lives. At times the last life is connected with the one that preceded it | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |

| well-known phenomenon after dying when one sees one's life unroll in front of one's eyes in a | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| human spirit sees the picture of the past life almost indifferently, so to speak. It seems to | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| so to speak. It seems to concern the life of someone else. You are not affected, not | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| that this is about you. You re-experience your life. And then it turns out that earthly life | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| life. And then it turns out that earthly life is quite differently evaluated here than on earth | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| looking at the unfolding pictures of your last life is entirely different. It is possible that a | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| task was not completed. You will re-experience your life often quite soon after you have left the | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| when, one day, you look again at your life. The person who can achieve already on earth | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| this same deep understanding of his or her life and indeed experience and feel it as he | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| in the purification sphere you see your past life from a point of view which is often | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| not want to see the true meaning of life, fulfilling the task for which I came? Why | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| Why did I refuse to believe that this life was not the only reality, that there is | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| The meaning will open up clearly from these life scenes, which do not only reflect the outer | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |
| scenes, which do not only reflect the outer life but also the soul currents and reactions. You | 12 THE ORDER AND DIVERSITY OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLDS-THE PROCESS OF REINCARNATION |

| concern a previous incarnation or this very same life, and say: I have gone against the law | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| I have to accept the consequences in this life. We often observe people who try very hard | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| be perfectly aware that every difficulty in your life is self-inflicted and therefore you have to go | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| your difficulties. He who wants to win his life will lose it. He who is ready to | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| or vanity, you do not give up your life; rather, you hold on to it too tightly | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| who truly give up their ego-selves, will receive life, again in the spiritual sense. They will find | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| spiritual path to learn to give up one's life in the true sense, which entails also being | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| most of you; you live almost all your life somehow in the future, and thus you let | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| somehow in the future, and thus you let life slip by. You miss out on seeing and | 13 POSITIVE THINKING: THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG KIND |
| outer layers it has acquired. In your own life, you will be able to sense quite easily | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| needs, in order to truly fulfill this present life and be in harmony with God and thus | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| there may be a shock reaction in the life of a person. This person has put the | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| Jesus taught. Only thus will you win your life. So begin by meeting your lower self with | 14 THE HIGHER SELF, THE LOWER SELF, AND THE MASK |
| If you meditate about this, about yourself, your life and your desires, you can find out what | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| only takes hold of his or her own life but also weakens the forces of darkness, for | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| all kinds in the spiritual world. If your life is in accordance with your destiny, and you | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| doing it, you are escaping reality. If your life is very difficult, you escape from your actual | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| is very difficult, you escape from your actual life and its problems by conjuring up pictures of | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| this way, they withdraw from the reality of life and from the reality they could create if | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| the memory to be taken away from one life to the next. I know, there are many | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |

| his great plan, and the fulfillment of this life according to God's will. When this is recognized | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| an urge in man to search for spiritual life? ANSWER: Because the higher self or the divine | 15 INFLUENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD AND THE MATERIAL WORLD |
| now you often do not know what this life is all about and why you should have | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| spiritual laws is also important. The outlook on life from the spiritual point of view often contrasts | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| is the truth. Even the unpleasant things in life will not have the power to tear you | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| work on self-purification? Nothing that happens in your life is good or bad in itself. Do not | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| is the only way you can direct your life, instead of being a slave and being directed | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| in your power to change. You have your life in hand if you use this knowledge, but | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| answer as inevitably as sun follows rain, as life must follow death. And this will bring great | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| a slave. From now on I direct my life. In order to be able to do that | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| Since willpower is of great importance in the life of a person, I would like to talk | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| directed instead of being the director of one's life, and taking the responsibility upon one's own shoulders | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |

| of the change for the better in your life. It is the foundation. Keep this in mind | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| little sacrifice at first. When you put your life really and truly in the hands of God | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| it is so difficult to really give your life up to God, with all that this implies | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| thus open and put your fate and your life in the hand of God, then you will | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| would tell us whether there is any conscious life on other planets? ANSWER: Yes, indeed. Each planet | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| planet, each star, is a sphere where spiritual life exists. QUESTION: But I meant organic conscious beings | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| certainly there is consciousness! But there is no life like your material one. The matter is just | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| materialized spirit was of flesh and blood. But life on the other planets is not exactly in | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| for you to perceive it. You think all life in the beyond is subtle matter, but this | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| we remember our present identity in the next life and are we going to work on our | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| problems? ANSWER: Whether you will remember your present life in the next one depends very much on | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| through their development, remember something of a former life. The memory will come to them. And as | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| You will deal exactly with the same problems, life after life, until you have solved them. As | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| deal exactly with the same problems, life after life, until you have solved them. As long as | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |

| a different country, you may have a different life pattern, yet the problems will come as long | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| will reappear in other forms in your next life. QUESTION: In his book, Johannes Greber writes about | 16 SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT -- WILLPOWER |
| certain longing, a certain dissatisfaction with the present life, even when you fulfill all your earthly duties | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| the more dissatisfied you must become with your life. The more God can expect from you because | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| grade. You must be dissatisfied with your outer life as well as with your inner life if | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| outer life as well as with your inner life if you do not deliver according to your | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| am I? How satisfied am I with my life and with myself? Think about it. If you | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| is not enough that you lead a decent life and are a so-called ethical person who does | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| to discover for the first time in your life that you have so far put on an | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| that creates hostility in certain aspects of your life, which again you do not want to see | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| can guide and determine his or her own life to a very large degree, and in that | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| at the beginning. Then you guide your own life and produce all the conditions that you need | 17 THE CALL -- DAILY REVIEW |
| a person who believes only in this present life, and not in an existence before or after | 18 FREE WILL |
| even how certain definite phases within the present life span will unfold. However, for the person who | 18 FREE WILL |
| because the factors you cannot control in this life were actually determined by you in your previous | 18 FREE WILL |
| fact that this law applies to one's present life is noticed and recognized by more and more | 18 FREE WILL |
| many causes of what is happening in your life can be traced to some outer or inner | 18 FREE WILL |
| a number of causes stemming from this same life which you do not remember; it takes a | 18 FREE WILL |
| the fact remains that nothing happens in your life for which you are not responsible. You all | 18 FREE WILL |
| year, and in many instances also your next life. So you actually have complete free will, my | 18 FREE WILL |
| can grasp this truth only if you view life and the world not just from your human | 18 FREE WILL |
| the time, unless unpleasant events occur in your life. Now God is not sending you these unpleasant | 18 FREE WILL |
| at one time or another, whether in this life or a previous one, you have prepared the | 18 FREE WILL |
| know where and how you lived your last life in order to find the roots of your | 18 FREE WILL |
| is not to your liking about your present life. If you go about finding your deviations from | 18 FREE WILL |
| decisions or take a certain course in one's life, there are many subtle inner will currents one | 18 FREE WILL |
| peace. Anyone who has attained something in this life, whatever it may be, has done this. People | 18 FREE WILL |
| will feel frustrated, unhappy, and discontented with your life. Begin to act now so that in every | 18 FREE WILL |
| fault, even though he has not lived his life according to plan and even though he furthers | 18 FREE WILL |
| even though he furthers a wrong current. This life may still not be entirely wasted from the | 18 FREE WILL |
| field, as well as the whole book of life. Feelings, wishes, or thoughts evolve not only from | 18 FREE WILL |
| fulfillment of God's will in every particle of life. Magic merely explores the psychic forces. The goal | 18 FREE WILL |
| ecstasy a steady and permanent improvement of the life of the ecstatic? ANSWER: Yes, certainly! But this | 18 FREE WILL |
| first of all your dear ones of this life. And according to your own will and wish | 18 FREE WILL |
| much bound to their relatives of the last life. Others also have this love, but they are | 18 FREE WILL |
| more easily and thus live a more pleasant life. If you die, for instance, in a state | 18 FREE WILL |
| the country he hated most in his last life. The reason of the cycle of reincarnation is | 18 FREE WILL |
| the greatest? What was the purpose of his life on earth, his one-time incarnation? The purpose of | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| earth, his one-time incarnation? The purpose of his life was not only to spread his teachings; for | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| the only purpose. The second purpose of his life, though still not the main one, was to | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| main one, was to show symbolically through his life and death the course and the stages of | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| Jesus. The resurrection of his spirit signifies the life eternal of bliss and happiness for the spiritual | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| permanently separated from God and from an eternal life of bliss. That might have included any one | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| The splitting between Judaism and Christianity after the life of Jesus was another fault grown out of | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| trust and who have influenced you in your life have said may not be entirely right. Certainly | 19 JESUS CHRIST |
| from previous lives -- or from the same life, for that matter -- through which they deserve | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| of the most radiant matter. It is the life force. God, as well as all creatures in | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| world, which, in certain states of development, facilitates life in general but by the same token slows | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| mean that it is necessary to lead a life of celibacy. There may be other partners with | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| will be in a position to comprehend what life really means, your reason for existence here, and | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| here, and what your personal task in this life is. There isn't a person without a task | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| between you and the complete fulfillment of your life task may be your personal development. It may | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| answers you need in order to conduct your life in a way that God will be pleased | 20 GOD: THE CREATION |
| get out of the self-created miserable circumstances. Since life in spirit is in direct relationship to the | 21 THE FALL |
| be born as men and women, the spiritual life force first acted to create other forms of | 21 THE FALL |
| force first acted to create other forms of life. The original life force that works and manifests | 21 THE FALL |
| to create other forms of life. The original life force that works and manifests itself in each | 21 THE FALL |
| can development take place. All the forms of life which existed before human beings have been leading | 21 THE FALL |
| free choice, God's law concerning this aspect of life was not violated. Communication with the beyond took | 21 THE FALL |
| layer has as its sole function the physical life in its various aspects. But thinking or feeling | 21 THE FALL |
| that they avoid those decisions concerning their inner life. They run away from them, sensing it might | 21 THE FALL |
| -- freely, because you choose so, not because life forces you. You see, my friends, the divine | 21 THE FALL |
| it and then step into it yourself. If life forces or pushes you into it, against your | 21 THE FALL |
| have learned through self-knowledge that you need what life gives you, and to meet it freely yourself | 21 THE FALL |
| yourself. Then the lesson will be learned and life will have other things to offer you. The | 21 THE FALL |
| difficult for me to do in my daily life? Perhaps for some of you the most difficult | 21 THE FALL |
| very far; think of your immediate reality, your life right now. View every day that passes from | 21 THE FALL |
| and much more can be accomplished in one life. What you can accomplish in one incarnation by | 21 THE FALL |
| this difficult path of perfection. If in this life they learn just enough to become a better | 21 THE FALL |
| understanding, or not the remotest possibility in this life to change in this respect, or have already | 21 THE FALL |
| plexus. Your soul, however, manifests in your emotional life, in your feelings and in your subconscious. Even | 21 THE FALL |
| am quite sure that the reason for the life and death of Christ will now make sense | 22 SALVATION |
| wisdom. However, there would be no purpose to life on earth at all if -- and this | 22 SALVATION |
| were with Him for some time of His life, but were not present when the really difficult | 22 SALVATION |
| but this was an additional facet of His life. It was a side benefit. Whenever anything happens | 22 SALVATION |
| talk on for hours and hours about His life on earth, my friends, about His sufferings and | 22 SALVATION |
| was for the same reason that He undertook life on earth for God's justice to be preserved | 22 SALVATION |
| during their development on earth, going from one life to the other. Lucifer kept all the rights | 22 SALVATION |
| Many, many lives or incarnations are indeed necessary. Life on earth is like a school where you | 22 SALVATION |
| process of very gradual purification begins. In each life, conditions are prepared so that a certain side | 22 SALVATION |
| the Kingdom of God for always. With each life, even in the worst cases, something is gained | 22 SALVATION |
