Spiritualism versus Spiritism

22 The reception of genuine INDOCTRINATIONS has been inseparably tied by GOD to a very high, human responsibility in regards to all of CREATION and all of one’s fellow man and this is why it bears this particular characteristics. 1 3. About the true QUEST (Transmission from the year 1962) Well, civilised man considers himself to be enlightened , especially in regards to the things one looks upon as “superstitions” these days. Only a number of people are aware that the material development has made enormous progress, but that the spiritual development has made retrograde steps. The majority of the people on Earth never ever even think about this. Man is continuously looking for something new; he cannot stand still and invents, plans and constructs. His technical knowledge grows by the hour, it becomes ever more extensive. Man already reaches for the stars. He wants to conquer the universe. But this search for something new is a search for something that hasn’t existed before. Every construction, every machine and every relay is a completely new configuration, something that was hereto not within the reach of man on Earth. With the help of these inventions one tries to discover something that is already there, but not already known, respectively to unveil the secret. But there are also other ways of searching: This important SEARCH has lapsed into oblivion more and more, but it certainly isn’t less interesting and important than the search for new material opportunities. The search for material opportunities pays off, but the search for spiritual insights usually costs money . People therefore prefer to choose gain over loss. It is quite unbelievable how petty man is when it comes to acquiring spiritual knowledge. One would even like to participate in a school or a seminar for free . They expect the state to cover the cost of this education. The Church is also expected to cover the cost for providing spiritual knowledge from their internal revenue. If someone wishes to gain additional indoctrination or higher knowledge, he also expects to receive this free of charge, or at least at the best possible price. The cheaper choice of product is naturally of a corresponding quality. In all areas of higher knowledge the search for the TRUTH eventually comes to rest. One becomes convinced that is isn’t all that important to worry about “abstract concepts”, because the search for material things progresses much easier . Profit offers all the benefits of a pleasant lifestyle here on Earth.  But the possibilities of an otherworldly comfortable life cannot be achieved through material means. Spiritual SEARCH is not abstract. This KNOWLEDGE is far more important than anyone could ever guess. CHRIST emphatically indicated this. 2 1 This vital basic prerequisite was most exemplary applied by the Medialen Friedenskreis Berlin under the leadership of Herbert Viktor Speer and the results were accordingly excellent.
