Grappling with Evil: Conquering Fear and Anxiety

The transformation through love within the realm of human feelings is a core mission of Christ through His Second Coming in the Etheric Realm.

For according to Rudolf Steiner, this transformation takes place within the etheric body through the human Ego manifesting selfless love to all sentient beings and all of the surrounding Cosmos. This, in turn, results in the development of a warm radiant force within the heart that rises up and bathes the higher centers of the head.

This is essentially the result of the “Christ in You” or “I Am” merging with the Human Ego and transforming the etheric or life-body of the human being into Life-Spirit (Budhi); which in turn, transforms its relationship to the astral body, physical body and the surrounding Cosmos.

Beyond this, Christ is also transforming the entire etheric life-body of the Earth and linking the microcosmic etheric heart of the human being to the macrocosmic etheric heart of the Cosmos.

Surviving Apocalypse: Creating Your Ark

The good news of the Apocalypse is that the harvest (sometimes called rapture) has already been reaped, because it was ripe. This part of the Revelation of St. John the Divine is seldom mentioned. Yes, the tribulation is in full swing, the end-times are here, and most people can see the plagues, death, and judgments of the Seals, Trumpets, and the Angels of Wrath happening in the nightly news. Fortunately, if you are one of those who understand the opening words of the prophetic book, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ”, then you would know what many believe, that Christ’s Second Coming has already happened.

The Incarnation of Ahriman: The Occult Annihilation of the Soul

In the modern world, ahrimanic shadow-thoughts rule the day. Our media devices are so alluring and addictive that children and adults seldom turn away from them for long. Whether those platforms are television, smart phones, game systems, computers, or virtual reality, they are seductive distractions that draw our attention away from the invisible spiritual to the materialism of an electronic world where Ahriman ensnares us in his spider web network of grey shadow thoughts.

The ego of the unwitting devotee of Ahriman is entangled in Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and a plethora of electronic prisons that fabricate a false version of the human ego – a digital-ego that “appears” to be connected with other human egos, but is, in fact, a complete mirage of one’s true ego.

The Damascus Event as the Second Coming

“The Christ will become a living comforter. Many a human being will have this experience when sitting silent in his room, heavy-hearted and oppressed, not knowing which way to turn. The door will open, and the etheric Christ will appear and speak words of consolation to him. The Christ will become a living Comforter to humans. Many a time when people – even in considerable numbers – are sitting together, not knowing what to do, and waiting, they will see the Etheric Christ. He will Himself be there, will confer with them, will make His voice heard in such gatherings. These times are approaching, and this positive, constructive element will take real effect in the evolution of mankind.”  Rudolf Steiner, GA 130

Ahriman’s Eighth Sphere

The difference between Christian hell and the Eighth Sphere is that fallen beings from the ranks of the hierarchy also have fallen into this realm and exert much pressure on souls to turn away from the spirit and look solely to the material plane and the sub-natural plane below them – the realm of hell.

This is a realm where many of the dead get caught by their materialistic vices and are imprisoned in their insatiable desires. Fallen light, in the form of electromagnetism, helps construct this sub-earthly plane that pulls angels and humans into a dark realm devoid of spirit.

It is a realm of living death, frustration from addictions, and a cold immoral hell made of the cast-off dross of the material world.

The Eighth Sphere is a subterranean layer beneath the earth where demons from many realms try to immorally consume human willpower as their means of incarnating into the material world. Thus, it is also called the “hell realm of hungry ghosts.”

The Art of Love

Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home
