The Light in Your Inner Being
THE WAY OF THE GRAIL – SUPPLEMENTARY TEXTS – November 28, 2022
Czech original: Světlo Ve Tvém Nitru · cesta-gralu.cz
Radiant Light permeates all life in the materiality here
High streams of radiant help circle in the vicinity of the Earth for the strengthening of all happening
The activity of the animistic and also of the spiritual servants who are near, above gross materiality, is in the highest movement prepared for the coming events which will bring the transformation of the old world into the new
It is only the eyes of earthmen that see nothing of this, their inner being perceives nothing, for men have, alas, through their way of life estranged themselves from all higher happening
In the world of men, therefore, the growing radiance of the luminous happening in the vicinity of the Earth calls forth unrest, tension and strife
Under this pressure of unrest and tension many sensitive people then close themselves off still more, because around them, among those close to them and in the whole of society, they find only grounds for a growing mistrust towards all that happens
Yet it is meant to be exactly the opposite
Above all things there is to unfold the promise of confidence in the nearness of God's liberation and rescue for those who are found to be pure
And therefore you who have the knowledge of the great happening of the Light, allow these streams of blessing to enter your inner being in all their fullness, with which all creatures in Subsequent Creation may now unite themselves
Let the flame of your spirit shine forth in these streams, in union with the Light that spreads omnipresently
The spiritual flame needs to surge upwards and to unite with the great Divine working
That is the glorious, fulfilling service of faithfulness of the spiritual kind in Subsequent Creation
The condition for this exalted service is the opening of the ability to perceive all things through the wakefulness of one's inner being
Only by quickening their inner being in a complete shaking off of all that has hitherto stifled and oppressed the brightness of the flame of the spirit will men fulfil the task which makes them meaningful in Creation
The flame of spiritual brightness of those who have the knowledge of the Truth is now to shine with full power over the whole of this Earth
O man, remember that the flame of a bright spirit shining in your inner being can be the rescue of thousands
It is only needful to bear this consciousness throughout the whole day and in confidence to fit oneself into the living happening of the rescuing Light, which works to raise the whole Earth higher above the present dire condition
On the part of the helpers working above gross matter everything has already been wonderfully prepared for this
Now there remains only the last part to be fulfilled, which lies in the opening of the full consciousness of the inner being of those who are incarnated on Earth at this time
Thus it is now ordained from the Light, thus it is also constantly guided by the Wisdom of God in all the threads that are woven for the help of this world
Threads from the heights, filled with help of every kind, descend to the Earth that they may be distributed among those who long for the Truth
Much is still to be done for all those who seek inwardly, that their spirit may refresh itself from the spring of the Truth
And for this all those are here who have come to help
But let us just look at how matters stand
Many of those who hold the Truth in their hands still strangely expect in their thoughts that they themselves are first to be richly endowed with Light and Good
From the source of Light and Good they are first to be given everything which they imagine to be needful for their own satisfaction in sufficiency for themselves on the path through life
Only then does one wish to think of one's fellow men
But it can never be so, for such an expectation runs counter to the lawful course of Creation
You who are still hesitating, consider for once with earnestness
In the Divine Laws it holds good that your inner being can open itself to Light and Good only when you yourself first become a giver to others
Be a bearer of the Light for others and the Light will always be with you
That is the Law working in Creation
If you suppose that you yourself have little Light for yourself, then begin to husband it further in the giving away of even this little
Then everything will swiftly turn to good for your blessing, for thus it is now strengthened through the nearness of the Light for every good striving of men
First it is needful to bestow your inner benevolent will to help and to support upon this world, that is, upon other men and upon all the creatures living and working here in connection with gross matter
Whoever does not do so cannot be endowed with help by even a fraction more, for under the pressure of the Ray of Parzival nothing else can now come to him than that which he deserves through his own attitude
The Light unites itself there where in man there dwells the will for Good and Light in the dealings between men
It is to interpenetrate everything that radiates out from man
That is the glorious happening which we may grasp as the merging of the human inner being, through its kind of conduct, with the working of the entire Harmony of God's streaming of the Light on all the planes of its effects
Nor is such a thing accomplished by one single deed, by one wrenching of oneself out of lukewarmness, but solely and only through constant activity in every place, under all circumstances
The Ray of Parzival strengthens all the effects of the Laws of Creation
Whoever does not endeavour to use this strengthening within himself solely for becoming luminous, for ennobling and for attuning the harmonious kind in all his manifestations will now inevitably be struck by the blows of all the happening that returns
Therefore look well into your inner being, at what really dwells there, before you complain about the causes of the condition of your life in this time on Earth
If you are honest your sight will open and in a single moment you will be permitted to behold with what all you yourself still hinder more Light from flowing through you into this world out of the heights of the spheres
You stand in the Law of God, which is strict and at the same time supremely Just, but also all-embracingly filled with the Loving-Kindness of the Creator
The transformation towards a better world lies in you alone
Accept this condition and at once everything will open for you in the living recognition of how wonderfully the Laws of God work in Creation
They lead everything to a strict manifestation of how things really are, and not as earthmen have hitherto wished to see them
Accordingly there also work all the helps that come to man through the animistic and spiritual guidance of his helpers
In Creation everything is a translucent cycle of life, simply interlocking within itself, which is guided and constantly urged forward through the Laws of Creation
These Laws have been here from the beginning, they endure in their working and will also be effective for evermore, no matter where you yourself may find yourself in Creation
Contained in them is bliss for all the pure striving of every inhabitant of Creation, provided only that he works in accord with the Harmony that permeates all things
Here too, on this Earth, everything now unconditionally begins to be directed towards an accelerated fulfilment of these Laws
Not a leaf now stirs, not a hair falls, if the ground for it has not been formed by the fulfilment of the Laws of God in their Just effect
Where there is a cause there is also an effect
Remember therefore that where an effect overtakes you there was somewhere earlier a cause for it
Where a seed was once laid into the soil of Creation, there it will now spring up, of whatever kind it may be
Over all that is contained in these words many people on this Earth have already pondered for a long time
Yet they still do not comprehend it, for they lack the direct experiences through which they would recognise it
Thus it remains standing aside from their spirit, and therefore they suppose that this and the further promise in the parables of the Son of God are only Words intended for the simple listeners of long ago, uncomplicated in their inner being
In the belief that nothing of the sort happens today they accept it only as the promise of a future condition on Earth which will perhaps one day really be fulfilled among men
For the present day, however, men have pushed it aside and do not admit at all that such a thing can be valid already now in their own present
Men do not believe it today because their eyes do not see it
Yet they do not see it only because they do not want to see it
Many endeavour to seek in it only symbolic pictures of the Words of Jesus about the greatness of the Father, which are simply to call to mind the omnipresence of God
The scholars of the church did indeed try to seek a straightforwardness in it, yet this was always to have only narrow bounds bound up with the events taking place in the visible world
The inner being of man, that is the spirit itself, was forgotten, for that would have required occupying oneself with all that lies in the threads of fate stretching across all lives
Observing only the visible tip of all events, men could not accept that bad things happen to seemingly good people
They forgot that it was precisely Jesus who drew attention to this with his words in the parables, when he spoke of the acceptance of the blows which come to man unexpectedly in order to shake him
It was given as a ground for the right comprehension and acceptance of the threads of fate, whose existence men have long since forgotten because their causes came about in the far-off times of past lives
They were to receive it not in defiance and complaint in the first place, as is the custom, but as a ground for their own inner becoming luminous, for the purification of their soul
Of their inner nature men do not think at all, because it has never been rightly recognised by them
Men cling far too ponderously only to all that is materially visible, while the most precious values of the soul-like and spiritual kind flow away between their hands
Therefore that acceptance of the blows of fate as an opportunity for awakening has been, and still is, so greatly misunderstood
It is always meant to be a ground for turning inward and thereupon for rousing oneself to a new, purer and more humble conduct on Earth
Although many preached about it, sought to lend it weight and in their best volition to convince others, nevertheless no one could rightly understand it and thereby receive it with full confidence
And yet it is such a simple happening, for it is precisely this picture of the Will of God permeating all things that speaks of how everything is subject to the Law “What a man sows, that he reaps”
This Law expresses exactly that mystery lying in the picture that without the Will of God not a hair falls from the head of man, nor does a leaf drift down from the tree, nor does a star in the sky go out
Everything is the effect of a cause which must precede it, so that it may then manifest in the unshakable Will of God in Creation
And men are those who in every moment create the causes that bring effects
On all the planes of their being they create the future path for themselves and for others
In every moment the threads for the future world are formed
Therein lies the answer to all the mysteries when men marvel at this or that fate of a man, of a nation, or of the whole Earth
But this is not the effect only of something long past
Nor is it the work of past generations growing out of the disposition of all the happening of the world, but it is the effect of the past year, month and week
Under the pressure of the luminous radiation of the Ray of Parzival everything is now so accelerated that it may approach the highest degree of the return of human volition, as it can work in the materialities here in the highest fulfilment of the Law of Reciprocal Action
The threads of the Vaenen are now taken over at once by the Alphar for the weaving of the threads of return back to man and to the whole of society
As you will, so it comes to pass
Do you not see, O man, how your own inner being plays that great part in the further weaving of fate
Today is the effect of yesterday, indeed of the preceding hour, into whose content the fabric of your attunement, of your wishes intended for yourself and for others, was laid by you yourself
Thus only yesterday, or a short while ago, this world was raised higher through you, just as perhaps in that same moment it was trampled through other men into the depths of still greater mire and ruin
Or perhaps you yourself also made it possible, through your wavering of mood, for the world to sink still lower, in that you willed this or that which lies far from all luminosity, nobility of character and joy
The lever lying in the Law of God will bring it into this world a short while hence, so that in the judgment of the Ray of Parzival it may bear witness to your beneficence, or to your share of guilt in the defiling of this Earth
It is an iron Law that works in this, and which only men do not know
Rather, however, it is thus, that although they sense its existence they do not want to receive it into their lives, for they fear that they transgress it all too often and all too lightly
Fear suppresses confidence in its glory, which in it nevertheless works as a great blessing for human spirits
In reality it is far more than a Law, for through it all there vibrates Love itself, which was bestowed by the Creator to be passed on to all his creatures and children dwelling in His Creation
Love, which adds power to all honest volition and at the same time can transform all failings into a symbolic laying aside, provided only that the spiritual flame of an all-embracing ardour burns in man to do for his fellow men only that which is filled with good and peace-filled thinking and acting
This Law can work through every man as a deliverance for all, effective with ease
Its effect does not divide men into rich and poor, does not sort them into small and great according to what their outward influence, visible to the earthly eye, may be, nor does it take away even a little of their strength if perhaps in their humility they consider themselves insignificant for the world around them
Their gift of free volition is not taken from them, and thus they must unceasingly and automatically share in all the weaving of the threads of personal and of world development
God's gift of free will works through their spirit, which can never be so worthless and small as many would wish in their volition to shake off from themselves the responsibility for the world
In a certain sense every man is in this a co-ruler of all happening
A weakling is then he who fears this and wants to flee from it in the naive notion that one can thus evade one's share of responsibility
The spiritual spark pulsating in him cannot allow it otherwise, because that is the very essence of its being
For all this to come to a halt it would itself have to cease to be, so as to lose its influence upon the further forming of the threads
That, however, would mean the destruction of the spiritual essence of man in the unique constitution of his inner personality
It would mean wishing for one's own end
Is it not then far better to use this great gift working in man for the forming of beauty and perfection, which shapes itself at once wherever accord with the Laws of Creation is attained by man through the connection with that great Harmony of the whole?
This connection then brings ever higher and mightier influxes of new powers for creating
The rousing of oneself to the great wave of power thus lies in the simple quickening of man's inner will towards all-embracing good
Only thus can the change for which billions of inhabitants long come about on this Earth among men
The beginning of bringing this longed-for prospect to its materialisation lies in the very inner being of man, that is, in the inner disposition of his spiritual spark
That giving which needs to precede everything lies in the fullness of peace and also in a joyful attunement, which at once flows out like a golden thread destined for the weaving by the hands of the Vaenen, who faithfully serve the Creator in the directing of the fates of men
Whoever seeks peace needs also first to radiate peace, whoever seeks help for himself is to be ready to help, even if only with the smallest thing, which lies in his inner wish for a quiet, kindly intercession for help and happiness for other men
Whoever seeks compassion needs to be compassionate, whoever asks for forgiveness needs first to forgive within himself all that seemed to him unforgivable
He does not do so for himself alone, but does so for a new world filled with Good and Light
How easy it is, and yet at the same time we see how hard it is for many people in the present day
And this because for the most part only the outer world is watched in the first place, and from it men derive their attunement
Outward things and events penetrate through the forms they have taken into the receptivity of the senses, and from there, surging over in the brain, they imprint themselves upon the nervous system of man
Thereby they set his receptivity vibrating and intervene in the inner fluctuation of moods, which is often all too easily influenced
Men today are for the most part so disposed that everything outward flows swiftly into the vibration of the sensitive perceiving of their nervous system and thereby also into the radiation of the blood
Without restraint they take into themselves many outward events of the surrounding world, which thus influence their inner attunement
But then their inner being is in reality not prepared for the receiving of God's Light, and therefore, in its insufficient calming and strengthening, it cannot weave pure and luminous threads for this world
The Light, however, needs to enter into man through the living spiritual consciousness of confidence in the victory of the great Justice and Love of God, which rules over the whole of Creation and thereby also works for the victorious outcome of all the happening on this Earth
The Light needs to penetrate to the spirit along the paths of a pure and joyful inner attunement, regardless of the outwardly still temporarily unlovely manifestations and forms of the present happening on Earth
In this reversed procedure lies the way out
In the turning inward and in the prayer of man, which can always raise him higher and open his inner being to the helping streams
Only thus will the Light be able to draw near to him, the Light which circles about this Earth in the hands of the animistic and spiritual activity that is close at hand
But whoever lays too great an emphasis of himself upon the outward forms and events taking place outside his spirit will lose himself in all the happening and forfeit all confidence in the Light
Close off your excessive perceiving of the outer world which approaches you through the bodily senses, and turn the stream within you the other way, that is, from within outwards
The inner being, in its becoming luminous and its calming, is to receive from the Light hope, joy and confidence in the outcome of God's working for the liberation of all that is pure on Earth
And this is then to be passed on from the inner being, by every path that offers itself to man, to others who are not yet themselves able to receive the Light through their inner being, because they are dependent upon the outward manifestations of the happening on Earth
In this you are to be givers out of that which the Light now grants you through an inner enabling, to which the knowledge of the Truth of the Message, brought by Parzival himself from the halls of the castle of the Holy Grail, is of such great help
In this Truth is contained all the important knowledge of the All-Wisdom of God working in the whole of Creation, which leads and directs the threads towards their sure adjustment and ordering in the Harmony that dwells in all things, also for this earthly world
Let this knowledge therefore come fully alive in your spirit, so that confidence in Light and Good may burn in your inner being constantly and unshakably under all circumstances
Out of this confidence there will be permitted to form in the threads those so longingly awaited foundations of a spiritually reborn life of men on Earth
