Reincarnation and Karma - Addendum

54 “It entirely depends on whether is it possible in individual cases for the soul to further develop in a positive way in the hereafter. All otherworldly service on behalf of mankind makes a reincarnation superfluous.” One female reader of the Menetekel wrote: “I have come across a contradiction: CHRIST mentioned a second death, he warned people about it. AREDOS wrote: ‘This second death is reincarnation.’ – CHRIST surely couldn’t have warned us about it, if renascence is ever so important for us?” The second death is the re-embodiment into a new terrestrial body; it is the end of one’s otherworldly existence. This returns people back to the terrestrial school where they are again exposed to all terrestrial difficulties. This female reader however writes: “Renascence is very important for us.” – Reincarnation is important to any soul that does not have opportunities for development in the spiritual realm. A fallen or underdeveloped soul is tied to a very specific lower SPHERE, one it cannot extricate itself from; it cannot ascend . To be incarnated is therefore an ACT of DIVINE GRACE for such a soul. The divine principle is always – here and in the hereafter – development and progress. If progress cannot be achieved in the spiritual realm, it must happen in the physical world. It is in people’s hands to determine where they reside, here or the hereafter. Depending on character and behaviourism, they are either reincarnated or not. • CHRIST warned about the second death and he thereby testified that he preferred development and service in the spiritual realm to a life on Earth. The fact that the churches have removed and banned the doctrine of reincarnation is regrettable. • The doctrine of reincarnation gives people the assuredness of their personal survival after their demise. If this doctrine was accepted all over the world, planet Earth would certainly be a different place. Reincarnation is a law of nature that no human being and no scientific insight can change. Reincarnation is as coercive as death. The desire to reincarnate is however respected and fulfilled. April 1974 Reincarnation Human dullness paired with ignorance managed to simply factor out an important doctrine, such as the doctrine of reincarnation represents, from human thought processes. Older publications of encyclopaedias didn’t list the word “reincarnation” at all. The word reincarnation describes man’s renascence. Encyclopaedias only explain the concept of “renascence” as the spiritual renewal of people living on Earth – ergo the betterment of man’s morals and character. This clearly indicates that the sciences – in agreement with the churches – set an absolute boundary for human beings. Death apparently puts a complete end to man’s existence, spiritually and physically and all personal problems come to an end. Due to scientific stubbornness and atheistic rejection we are confronted by a mistake whose terrible repercussions cannot be enumerated. Researching reincarnation is an absolutely important assignment for the sciences, but this field of research is unfortunately still in private hands. But one has been able to gain some good results in
