Chapter 4: The Spirit World

4.1 God’s world

  • You say we should be in contact with the Spirit World of God, and that other spirits will harm us spiritually and even physically. But isn’t everything God’s world?

~~~

4.2 Fighting dark forces

  • In Pathwork Lecture #15 Influence Between the Spiritual World and the Material World, you spoke about the many spirits who are around a human being, spirits of darkness and higher spirits. Is our calling for them mainly conscious?

  • When bad things happen in life, is that due to the presence of dark forces?

  • Let us imagine that all humanity, meaning each individual, would follow the line of least resistance and give in to the Lower Self, and nurse it instead of fighting it. What would happen from your point of view?

4. 3 Lucifer and his henchmen

  • Why was the name Lucifer, which means light-bringer, given for the satanic power? Where is its scriptural origin?

  • In Isaiah it is said that God created good and evil. Did God create the evil forces and the Luciferic powers too?

  • A friend of ours who is a follower of Rudolf Steiner’s teachings said that there are not only two “kingdoms,” heaven and earth, good and evil, but three. According to this concept the earth is ruled by a being that is not Lucifer or the devil, but Ahriman, who is the ruler of matter and who is supposed to be more dangerous than Lucifer. Is this true?

  • The souls in the lower spheres are supposed to suffer much pain. How is it then that Lucifer, who is the worst of all evil spirits, does not seem to suffer? Is this just?

~~~

4.4 Angels and ghosts

  • Sometimes I become conscious of an entity near me. How can I tell if this is true or not?

  • Is it OK to contact spirits to ask them for help?

  • In what form do spirits who are still undeveloped see higher spirits?

~~~

4.5 Developing spiritual qualities

  • Does everyone have the same potential for the development of the qualities of reason, will and emotion?

  • What are bodhisattvas?

~~~

4. 6 Contacting the Spirit World

  • What is the best way to get in contact with people in the Spirit World?

  • I would like to ask about restitution to loved ones in the Spirit World. Apart from what you told us we can do, can we dedicate certain actions to them, or how can we help them to understand that we have understood, that we want to make restitution?

  • We know that when we are asleep, often the Spirit World teaches us or communicates with us. Is there any way of remembering these communications? Is there a way of training oneself to be more open to receive them consciously?

  • It seems possible to use a Ouija board to train oneself to communicate with other entities. Would you say this is a good thing to do?

~~~

4. 7 Spiritual tests

  • Why is it that one feels abandoned by God, that one finds oneself without assistance from the higher spheres, just when one goes through the most difficult times?

~~~

4.8 Seers and Nostradamus

  • May I ask in this connection about Nostradamus who has prophesied some of these events? Isn’t that impossible to do, over 400 to 500 years?
  • So the prediction of Nostradamus for the end of this century does not have to come true?
  • So seers such as Nostradamus have insight into these records?

~~~

4.9 Guardian angels

  • Would you please tell us more about guardian angels?
  • Are any of the guardians in between incarnations, or are they all out of the cycle of incarnations?

~~~

4.10 Spiritual helpers

  • What is the place of the White Brotherhood in the evolution of consciousness throughout history, and their place in the future evolution of consciousness?

~~~

4.11 Dreams

  • If some of our dreams are sent to us by the Spirit World in order to teach us a lesson, why then are they so covered by symbolism?

  • Can you give us suggestions for interpreting dreams?

  • Sometimes when one has an unresolved problem and one goes to sleep relaxed, intending to have the problem resolved, one wakes up with the solution. Is it correct that then one’s unconscious mind has solved it?
