Realisation of the worthlessness of the earthly ....
Afterlife ....

What can earthly life still offer you if you have recognised that life in the spiritual kingdom is far more valuable, that it is, after all, the actual life which is only preceded by a period of preparation .... the soul's life in embodiment as a human being .... And as this time of preparation draws to a close, every thought must then be directed towards the afterlife, this afterlife must be eagerly awaited because it replaces the life in the last shell and the soul enters spheres as a free spirit which touch it in an extremely beneficial way if only the soul has reached a certain degree of maturity.

All earthly things must lose their appeal in view of this realisation and every day must only be regarded as an intermediate station. And thus man cannot be touched with fright by the knowledge of the near end, for if he stands in knowledge, the cause and purpose of it is known to him, and the knowledge of it only adds to the quicker detachment from everything that belongs to the earth ....

The human being must become calm within himself, he must only concentrate on spiritual knowledge, he must strive to avoid every temptation and give himself completely to God so that he will be seized by His love, and then he will only live in God and his earthly course will not have been in vain. But the knowledge of the eternal truth is a gift of grace which the human being can and must acquire for himself through unselfish neighbourly love; but this always means overcoming selfish love and thus renouncing earthly pleasures and enjoyments of his own accord .......

Consequently, man must first give something before he can receive, he must not regard the earth with its charms as desirable, but he must learn to despise it, only then does he divest himself of what is still valuable to his fellow men. He gives it to his needy neighbour and receives something purely spiritual in return .... the spheres of light open up to him and radiate into his heart, which now increasingly detaches itself from earthly things and exchanges spiritual knowledge for it, which now allows him to consciously strive for spiritual life. The end will not come as a surprise to such people, for through knowledge they stand in deep faith and through faith again in the knowledge of God's eternal plan of salvation, of the meaning and purpose of earthly life and of the worthlessness of earthly matter. They live consciously and with God and will gladly exchange life for eternal bliss ....

Amen
