"We should
seek the truth without hesitation; and, if we refuse it, we show that
we value the esteem of men more than the search for truth."
--
Blaise Pascal
"So far
only art is still born out of the activity of the living
spirit, out
of the intuitive perception. Art
alone has had a natural and
therefore
a normal and healthy origin and
development. The spirit,
however,
does not express itself in
the intellect, but in the intuitive
perceptions,
and only manifests in what
is generally called "deep inner
feeling"
("Gemuet"). That is just
what the intellectual man of today, who is
so
inordinately proud of himself,
likes to mock and ridicule. Thus
he
derides what is most valuable in
man, yes, the very thing
that
really makes man a human
being!"

DECLARATION CONCERNING THE GRAIL MESSAGE
for a serious interest in reincarnation is that, rightly understood,
it holds the key to an understanding of the many
apparent injustices and the misfortunes that befall people in what appears
to be a haphazard, random and
inexplicable manner. These circumstances lead many people to ask why, if
God exists, and is just and loving,
there should be so much misery in the world, so much
suffering that appears undeserved, and also many
seemingly
unearned gifts and opportunities... Unfortunately, many
people have become atheists or are only half hearted
believers because the answers they are provided to this and similar
key questions are not convincing.
Thinking people need answers that are logical and that are also in
tune with their intuitive sensing of an
Almighty God whose attributes must include perfect justice and
love... An objective of this book is to show how
the right understanding of reincarnation and
its mechanisms lead to an absolute conviction, not mere
belief, in the
perfect Justice and Love of God."
