T O P I C R E V I E WSunChild"Nothing happens in the world twice; there was never the earthly existence that there is now. Earth-existence signifies the Cosmos of Love; existence on the previous planet signifies the Cosmos of Wisdom. We are to evolve love from its most elementary stage to its highest. Wisdom rests hidden on the foundation of earth-existence. One should not speak therefore of the “lower” physical human nature, for it is really the most perfected form of man. One should look at the wisdom-filled structure of a bone, for instance the upper thigh bone. We see there solved in the most complete way the problem of how to carry the greatest possible mass of weight with the employment of the least material and force. One should look at the marvellous structure of the heart, of the brain, The astral body does not indeed stand higher. It is the “enjoyer” which makes continual attacks on the wisdom-filled heart. It will still take a long time to become as perfect and wise as the physical body. But it must become so, for that is the course of evolution. The physical body had to evolve too; what is wise in it had to develop out of unwisdom and error. Evolution of wisdom preceded the evolution of love; love is not yet perfected. It is to be found in the whole of nature, in plant, animal and man from the lowest sex-love to the highest spiritualised love. Immense numbers of beings which the love-urge brought forth are destroyed in the battle for existence. Conflict is active wherever love is, the entry of love brings conflict, necessary conflict. But love will also overcome it and change conflict into harmony." -Rudolf Steiner, Lecture, Origin of Suffering, Origin of Evil, Illness and Death------------------Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place. -Kurt Vonnegut.Mblake81Deja VuLei_KueiTheosophists were masters at rambling coherently...No wonder the national socialists wanted him dead, he could ramble better than Hitler ------------------Proud Member of the Vatican Assassin Warlock Attack Squad!You can't handle my level of Tinfoil! ~ {;,;}FaithUmmmm....SunChild can you translate? SunChildOk firstly with Steiner, once you learn how to read it, it comes easier. Yes.Don't go past a sentence, or a word you don't understand. Often purely re reading it a few times before moving forward will help. I took 2 hours to read a page from Occult science. Yep, two hours. It's only laziness, that's all. ------------------Be soft.

But it must become so, for that is the course of evolution. Pretty neat! SunChild
