THE WAY OF THE GRAIL – SUPPLEMENTARY TEXTS – August 28, 2023
Czech original: Od Herfeliné · cesta-gralu.cz
Through the sublime handmaiden of Valhalla there has come to men, from the beginning of their being throughout the whole Subsequent Creation, always only true help and healing for all those who sincerely pray for it
Thus from the beginning of human existence upon this Earth also, the radiation of Herfeline streams to these places in the universe, so as to permeate them with its healing vibrations
These vibrations of radiation have therefore been here ever since the times of the primeval peoples
The sages of ages long buried knew of it and received this radiation as the blessing of deities, as at their stage they still designated everything High and animistic
Today men alas no longer know that it is precisely this helping radiation mediated by this handmaiden, for since the beginning of the ages her form has often been confused with the way in which the knowledge of the particular age in which they live enters into the perceiving of men
In ancient times this intuition of men with a partly opened perceiving was still far clearer, and thus men knew of the handmaiden Herfeline, whom they often called “the Giver of blessed life and health”, for it was she who brought men happiness and the power for the healing of their bodies
Since those times, however, the knowledge of this handmaiden of Valhalla, so important for mankind, was lost and died away
Nevertheless her working remained here
She herself was always perceived as a feminine being who appeared to people praying for healing
Thus many an appearance of Herfeline is, for instance, confused by Christians with the appearances of Mary, the earthly mother of Jesus
It was so and still is so because the Marian cult was for centuries very strongly cultivated among the faithful by the churches in many lands of the western world
Therefore we find so many confusions in the understanding of men
Mary, as the earthly mother of Jesus, was granted grace for the brief moment of the receiving of the Ray of the Love of God, which united itself with her so as to make possible the entry of a separated part of the divinely unsubstantiate radiation, which God the Father sent down to mankind in the form of the Son as help in the time of their highest spiritual need
For all these graces Mary still remained in her essence only of the humanly spiritual kind, and therefore after her departure from this Earth she remained upon her spiritual path, which for her, as for all other people, leads upwards into Paradise
Upon this path she could not work such miracles as have often been spoken of by the faithful for centuries
It was therefore of necessity another being who brought all this to fulfilment
The sublime handmaiden of Valhalla – Herfeline
She appears in order to help all, not only Christians
Other people, however, sense instead of Herfeline the nearness of an angelic being, in whom they behold a radiant figure of feminine features who counsels and helps them
Others again perceive only a blinding radiation of light which bears within it an incomprehensibly blissful supraterrestrial kindliness and a calming protection
Still others hear extraordinary impressions of voices, and much else besides, always according to how the moments they live through connect with the disposition of their existing human perceiving and thinking
In the whole of history we find upon the Earth many varieties which have already manifested themselves many times in all the cultures of the developmental stages of earthly mankind
Although in the case of Herfeline we find much that differs, men agree in one thing, namely in the feminine kind of radiation of this being
It is moreover just the same with all the other servants of Valhalla, whom the various peoples call by other names, yet with these supraterrestrial beings they agree more or less upon the kind of activity and also upon their influence upon human life
Only the approaching age of enlightenment will bring therein a greater ordering and an understanding of how exceedingly important Valhalla and its inhabitants are for mankind and for its successful walking through life
Herfeline works as the mediator of healing helps, no matter whether men perceive her therein in her true form or not, and however they name her task or the very essence of her animistic kind
For her the only important thing is the radiating of a sincere and fervent plea for help issuing from a man who does not close himself within to that which comes to him as healing out of the Light, that is, out of the extra-material radiation of life in Creation
Because she stands above all the narrowly earthly comprehension of men, how men name her binds her not at all, but she looks above all to whether they will heed her counsels and how far their inner being is open to the helping radiation which she mediates to those who pray
Her fulfilment is not towards men, but towards her ruler O-dio-nar, who in turn is bound through Mercury directly to Parzival
Herfeline is therefore in the true sense of the word a glorious handmaiden of God, if we survey all the stages of radiation which stand as connecting links between her and the Father of all
Her task is in this sense for earthly men an immeasurably precious gift of God
The healing radiation out of the Love of God flows through her; she vibrates wholly in this streaming and bathes in it, herself blessed by what it brings to her
Of that which streams to her she gives onward, and at the same time she is therein endowed with a fulfilling state of happiness which makes her wholly devoted to her service
This state of being is alas something very remote for the receptivity of men, who are stuck again and again in the section of the materialities
Therefore it is also always something wholly unexpected when the radiation of Herfeline in this life-giving kind of hers draws near to one of the people
Although this in itself already requires of such a man or group of people the fulfilment of a certain degree of openness in order that she may descend closer to the material world of men, the drawing near of Herfeline then brings a complete enrapturing by the kind of radiation which streams from her and surrounds her far on every side
The radiation issuing from her already heals of itself, but at the same time it soaks onward into the stages of the animistic, which divides it into the most varied kinds of help exactly according to how the paths are open at that moment
Thus one time it is through the healing radiation of hands, another time through words spoken in fervent prayer, or it is in connection with some earthly place, or perhaps also through water, herbs and much else besides, all of which can heal and help life upon the Earth
There is as yet no sense here in speaking of too many particulars, all of which are to be found therein and also manifest themselves as something self-acting
There is as yet no sense in showing individual instances of how variously her healing help can come to men
Because men now need at least in its foundation to grasp and to accept what greatness, until now unknown to men, is bound up with the task of this sublime animistic handmaiden, it is very important to bring the concept of Herfeline into the world of thought, in which as yet nothing is known of her
The greatest obstacle therein, however, is the all too rigid inertia in the human world of thought
Even those people who are more alive as regards knowledge, who hold in their hands the knowledge of the Grail Message, stand before this recognition silent and perplexed, if they do not directly rail against accepting that Herfeline is real, because upon the pages of the Grail Message they find nothing of it
Thus many people struggle with it within, because the knowledge which they have accepted and acknowledged does not speak directly of the names of the individual High servants of the animistic kind
The obstacle therefore rests in this, that what is now brought is again too new for the earthly thinking of men
But so it is with every development of knowledge upon this Earth
Everything new is at first rejected by the majority and accepted only by a few people who are unprejudiced and at the same time inwardly open, only to be accepted many years later by the majority in a jubilant and thankful call to the Light and to God
According to the present manner of comprehension of men at least two generations would therefore have to pass before the forms surrounding the new knowledge of the High animistic servants became familiar and more a matter of course
So it would have to go according to the present inertia of the paths in the worlds of thought
But in today's grave time of great transformations there can be no waiting for such a thing
Men today far too urgently need to find the connection with Herfeline, for therein rests for many the very essence of their further continuance upon this Earth
Not because on account of his unwillingness he would have to be recalled, but precisely because through the laying aside of the threads out of the past there rushes towards many people the necessity of living through matters of health, which by their radiation must come so as to be lived out upon man and thus be laid aside
And it is precisely for this reason that men need to know the way to Herfeline, for she is sent to them out of the Light as a helper in the time of need upon this Earth which is already coming
Men need to know of this handmaiden, for if today they call to God for healing help, it is Herfeline who is sent to them by God as the help and the rescue standing nearest to the materialities
It is now fitting to grasp rightly how all the important helping radiation streams through the animistic essence of this handmaiden in Valhalla, so that it may spread further as that which enlivens and heals all life in the materialities
Without the knowledge of her task many people will lose the possibility of connection with important helps upon their way through life
But Herfeline is not here only for this short earthly life of men, she is here as the guardian of the healthy development of the soul and above all of all the spiritual striving of man
That is something wholly other than what earthly men have known until now
Herfeline always looks to the healthy path for the spiritual inner being of man
But this all too often goes against the wishes of earthly men, who look for help in health solely and only upon the gross material plane of their short earthly existence
Not so is it with the sublime Herfeline
By the very essence of her mission she always looks to the path and the goal which are ideal for the human spirit
This, however, is not seldom at variance with the wishes of the purely material earthly life of men
And that is the so new thing which is connected precisely with the important reminder of the need for the inner spiritual radiation in man
If this radiation is pure and, in fervour, all-embracingly set upon the seeking of harmony in every moment of life, then the helping and healing radiation streaming towards the materialities through the sublime Herfeline can unite itself in a strengthened effect with a man thus inwardly attuned
And again it is needful to recall that it is a matter of a radiation which brings help above all for the development of the spirit, for its maturity and its wisdom
Thus not that with this radiation there is a hastening to help merely of the gross material kind in every smallest illness or in everyday difficulties
In this way not a single particle of the radiation of the Loving-Kindness of God works in the work of Creation, which is nevertheless always ready in the highest readiness and wholeness to help every creature, and thus also all men upon the Earth who pray for it in the openness of their inner being
The Love of God always breaks the paths for the spiritual in the materialities in such a way that the way for it to reach the true spiritual home of Paradise may be found
That is something wholly other than what men connect with their short and in many respects limited life here upon the Earth
It is therefore not always a seeking of ways for a successful healing, for from time to time the path of the human spirit is set otherwise, and it is a thousand times more beneficial for him if at times his development in the threads of fate leads him into other planes
This, however, is something which men will not grasp for a long time yet, for by their intellectual will they are naturally bound to the place of their being here upon the Earth
This because their material instinct of self-preservation leads them to it, which serves as a magnet for the anchoring in gross materiality, which is in essence right, for therein lies the protection for the holding of the soul in the earthly body
The spiritual inner being, however, can in right knowledge move further on, so as to be prepared for what will come when one day the earthly body ceases to serve the spirit
Then such a man is helped on the part of Herfeline, so that the departure from the Earth may be for him a kindly and peaceful happening, as under right circumstances it should always be
With the laying aside of the covering of the earthly body the path of the human spirit does not end, and thus neither does the help of the accompanying radiation of Herfeline, for by the essence of her animistic origin she works also into the ethereal planes
There, however, her radiation has another form, and the soul which advances into ever finer and more luminous planes may receive her radiation as wholly supporting, without there being any need to speak much of it by way of explanation
It is all much more natural and thereby consciously accepted as something which in the planes concerned is an ever-preserved knowledge
Unlike the earthly world, the finer worlds of the ethereal planes stand always in the transparency of the influx of the Light, and thereby nothing of the knowledge there is lost
Souls dwelling in the planes of the luminous regions of the ethereal section of the Subsequent Creation have a higher awareness of all that happens from above downwards, without all of the souls needing to know everything in detail about the animistic working, about Valhalla and other matters which here upon the Earth are more important for orientation in the understanding of happenings, so that the doubt of the materialistic intellect may be counterbalanced
In the planes of luminous life in the gardens of the ethereal kind all this is counterbalanced for the souls by a blessed trust in the work of God as a whole
There the souls need not instruct themselves in particulars as is the case here upon the Earth, for in the more radiant surroundings the spiritual spark absorbs everything, resembling a living magnet which draws the surrounding radiation to itself
The attracted radiation contains within it, ever more as a whole, all knowledge, and therefore many things are thereby self-evident to the spiritual inner being and to the soul and are more easily accepted in trustfulness, for the surroundings there are saturated with great knowledge
And all that until a certain time was there still veiled in mystery was uncovered a short while ago thanks to the presence of the Ray of Parzival
Parzival, as the steward of the work of Creation, brought into the most luminous planes of the ethereal also all the radiation needful for the souls there, so that these might ripen in accelerated measure and in their fervour be permitted to complete the whitening of their robes, which in other words means that they were permitted to rise above the plane of all the materialities, to pass through a part of the animistic and, laying aside all the last particles of the coverings, to enter as self-conscious spiritual flames into the home of the spirit, into Paradise in the Primordial Creation
But otherwise is it here upon the Earth, where even today the struggle of the human spirit is waged for the finding, or the not losing, of the right way to the spiritual home
And to this right way belongs in great part also the recognition and the understanding of the importance of all animistic creating and helping, for therein is contained for the human spirit here in gross materiality also the understanding of the Will of God itself, in which the animistic works wholly, from the greatest down to the smallest
It is precisely here upon the Earth that all this is needful for the complete healing of the human spirit
Knowledge is healing, for it helps towards the resetting of much wrong human striving
It is therefore an ancient intercession of Herfeline to O-dio-nar that human recognition may be filled with true knowledge out of the Light
And this was fulfilled here upon the Earth also, when Parzival, subsequently the Son of Man, as the divinely unsubstantiate Ray of Imanuel working in Parzival, brought to the Earth the all-embracing knowledge of the Truth about God the Father and about His Laws working in Creation
But even though all this was fulfilled out of the Light as the crowning of all the promises, there is here far too much lack of understanding, and thereby there is still for the humanly spiritual the danger of stumbling and of falls upon the way to the spiritual home
This is given by the fact that despite all the helps out of the Light the influence of the intellect in the lives of men is here still far too strong
Still present here in thinking and in acting is that wrongness resting in the insufficiency of the radiation of the humanly spiritual spark for it finally to overcome entirely, through its volition of all-embracing good, the learned ways in human thinking and acting
And it is precisely for this reason that Herfeline again turns in intercessory prayer to O-dio-nar and also above all to Parzival, of whose nearness the sublime handmaiden knows, so that the radiation of the Light may be strengthened for the liberation of the human spirit out of the captivity of the still-enduring rule of the intellect
Her call was granted out of the Light for the hastening of many happenings which will now come into the nearness of earthly men
Especially through the radiation of the Light out of the Ray of Parzival is everything spiritually pure in men strengthened
At the same time, however, all that sets itself in opposition is driven in growing pressure towards a collapse into itself, similarly as one day all the stars collapse which have burned themselves out in their radiation and have become overripe
This is now happening above men
Therefore there is here now so much pressure, unrest and inner rending, even to the point of collapse
This holds good everywhere where the inner purity is lacking, which on the contrary is ever more strengthened, so that at last a path may be formed for the genuine intuitive perception which is to rise above all human thinking in its baleful manner of cleverness
Therein lies therefore a great blessing resting in a healing which far surpasses all the individual personal matters in human lives, for it is at the same time the healing of one whole part of the materialities in the world-part of Ephesus
All this is also the fulfilment of the intercession of Herfeline, who looks to the way of the human spirit towards its true home as the summit of her work in helping healing
Of course a multitude of threads of radiation also flows at the same time towards the Earth for the healing of all that is bodily, which can unite itself with this radiation if it finds within itself enough inner fervent purity
Thus in this time great things now take place above mankind, without the greatest part of human society noticing it
But that is only a temporary phenomenon, for the enlightenment draws near to the Earth, to be fulfilled in the accelerated awakening of many
Then men will give thanks to all the servants of God that earthly mankind could at the very last moment be drawn out of the clutching mire of its own false paths
It will not, however, be for all, for those who suppose that it is not for them and who even today go their own way will not be held a moment longer than the command of God determines
Then it will collapse with a speed which will appear as something unheard of in the density of the world of this small planet
This because at the collapse of all that is old, which is far from the Harmony of the work of Creation, other animistic servants are now at the same time zealously at work
We are not far from the great changes which draw near, so that in the end everything may be fulfilled upon mankind itself
And for this time there is still here for everyone the great intercession of Herfeline, so that the small earthly man may pass through it all in the health of his spirit and of his body
Liberation and enlightenment will come as a strengthening of the radiation in man there where in the inner beings of some people the glow of the spiritual spark still burns strongly enough
The radiation of such sparks will be strengthened, so that in the end, through their radiation of the all-embracing volition for good, they may attain within themselves the mastery over all their thinking and acting
It is the greatest gift from the handmaiden of God, Herfeline, which until now could come to mankind as a whole from her
One day men will recognise it clearly and distinctly, and in a prayer of thanks to God they will also call to mind the name of this handmaiden, for therein they will perceive the grace which already today rests within it
That which now comes is therefore a gift from Herfeline, so that men may return to the path which leads their spirit soundly and strongly upwards towards the spiritual home
It is a strengthening for the healing of the inner being of those who strive for all that is of higher worth in life
The Giver of happiness and of healthy being sends to men, through her radiation, streams joined to the onrolling Light which draws near to the Earth out of the Ray of Parzival
For that which will yet make it possible for men to stand the test therein in their health, they have Herfeline to thank, for it is a radiation from her for all who are of pure inner being
