How are things to continue in these strange and challenging times? Trying to keep pace with the world today, our everyday lives are increasingly weighed-down by environmental, individual and inter-personal conflicts which sap our confidence and strength.The planet is suffering and so are we under the strains of our departure from the natural Order in Creation, fuelled by our ignorance and indifference towards its Laws. Amid upheavals due to the unfolding collapse of everything that is wrong, which must come about for want of support in the natural evolution of Creation, we face the widening realisation that we cannot go back to our old and harmful habits, although many of us yearn to do just that, refusing to believe that those days are irretrievably over. Fortunately, there is a growing…

How very far away are we from having fulfilled these words ... so far that many today no longer know that heaven, the spiritual part of this Cosmos, from which our inner being originates, actually does exist ... are no longer capable of grasping anything spiritual, but whose entire knowledge remains solely restricted to the physical limitations of the gross material perceptive capacity of the earthly intellect, which in its one-sided overdevelopment has hampered and subdued the spiritual maturing in man ... has prevented the awakening and beneficial working of those human virtues in the spirit of man, which could have and would have changed many a thing in this world. Then man would find fulfilment within himself and would become what he was always meant to be ... a…

‘In the knowledge of Creation which I have given in my Message, and in the related explanation of all the Laws automatically working in Creation, which may also be called the Laws of Nature, the whole weaving of Creation is displayed without a gap; it allows every process to be clearly recognised, and therewith the purpose of man's whole life. With unassailable logic it also unfolds his “whence” and his “whither”, thus giving an answer to every question, provided man seriously seeks for it.’ ‘Give God the honour of perfection! Then you will find the key to the unsolved riddles of all life. It shall be my endeavour to bring serious thinkers to this point. A sigh of relief shall go through the circles of all seekers for the Truth.…

Paul Schmitt A full-time clarinetist in an orchestra, Paul Schmitt’s lifelong quest to discover answers to seemingly unanswerable questions about human origin and existence, how the order of the world is organised, whether the cosmos arose by ‘chance’ or whether it was created and is enlivened by a higher power, whether man is a ‘biochemical machine’ leading a more or less meaningless and irresponsible existence, or whether we all have a destiny to be fulfilled that follows a higher order and meaning, led him on his spiritual path to the work In the Light of Truth – The Grail Message, which holds knowledge that goes beyond humanity's current level of understanding. Ojúmó T’imó Ojúmó T’imó speaks and writes on questions that agitate humanity.…

The calls for reflection and a change of direction, in the face of the destruction of Nature, have sounded for many years now, but the human being of today, with a few laudable exceptions, ignores the warnings. His focus is only economic and technological ‘progress’ and ‘development’. He exploits and maltreats the land, plunders Nature using all the technical means at his disposal to fulfil his desires, and boasts of his immense progress compared to his ancestors, whom he contemptuously regards as backward and unsophisticated. Everything that he does is done in the name of progress and for the sake of a humanity which wishes only to dominate. The smell of petrol or diesel has become the incense of the industrial age, whose titans worship the power of the machine.…

The third lecture of the work In the Light of Truth – The Grail Message presumably poses a very great challenge for the modern human being of the 21st century: Is he really expected to believe in the existence of a figure that he has hitherto probably regarded more as an antiquated relic of clerical scaremongering or at best as a ‘symbol of evil’? Can it be that a figure, which loomed large in an age of gloomiest superstition, perhaps only as a means of intimidating people and thus making them subservient and pliable, could at all be real? And not only that: but could it pose a real and serious danger to us human beings of today? We are talking about Lucifer, the fallen archangel, as he is portrayed…

Seriously seeking Dear Pearl, I see that you recommend the book In the Light of Truth. I also highly recommend this book for serious seekers. I was brought up in the Christian religion, but by the time I was 15 years old I could not believe in anything anymore. Of what use is a belief if you do not experience it within yourself ... if you do not consciously experience the helps in the many struggles through life ... and also are unable to understand a Divine Power that would arbitrarily perform miracles, which would appear to contradict every Law of Nature and the concept of a Divine Justice, which in my opinion should always be inseparable from Divine Love. Divine Love should be in complete accord with the fulfilment…

If we think more seriously about why hardship, confusion, hopelessness and despair reign supreme in all areas of life today, we can only come to one conclusion: the lack of a living faith has robbed us of every support and trust in the meaning of our existence. We are likely often to find fanatics, hypocrites and Pharisees, but rarely a convinced believer who still carries within himself a living knowledge of the Divine Truth. In recent times, blind faith is advocated as a makeshift bulwark against the dangers of sliding into agnosticism and atheism. Even if many well-intentioned persons are sincere about their faith, which they do not consider as being blind at all, but rather as the upbuilding of age-old traditions in the face of increasing scepticism, yet everyone…

THE THREE VOLUMES of In the Light of Truth contain a total of 168 lectures whose contents, building upon one another, give a picture of Creation in entirety. The Author’s all-embracing view is based on well-known natural laws, which reveal the hidden connections of our existence and offer valuable guidance for the journey through life. The lectures assembled in these three volumes were written and developed by the Author, Abd-ru-shin, between the years 1923 and 1938. Who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? The Work In the Light of Truth is known throughout the world for its conclusive answers to the great questions of humanity, such as the meaning of life, justice, fate and why we live after death. Written originally in German, it is…
