The Word of God, the Law of Love and Unity, and Those Without Rights on this Earth

Excerpts

 

God, the Creator of life, is the unity and the measure of all things. In nature and in the animal kingdom, there is unity, balance and the all-encompassing order of God. It regulates fertility in the animal world and the fruits of the plant world. The elements and the seasons could give people information about the order of the Eternal One.
The four elementary forces work for Mother Earth. Because God is the life in everything, He is also with Mother Earth and all forms of life. Via the elementary forces – sun, light and warmth; water and rain; the soil with the teeming life in it; the air and the wind – the mighty Spirit brings everything to bloom in spring, the fruit to ripen in summer and in late summer the harvest begins. In autumn the life in nature gradually goes to rest, so that – when this part of the Earth again turns to the element sun, that is, to fire – it blossom anew in the spring. Winter is a time of rest and at the same time, a preparation for the new life in spring. It is a harmonious sequence of events in nature, a cycle of life, of which growth and evolution are at the same time an intrinsic part.
Within this framework – spring, summer, autumn and winter – the great Spirit also takes care of the animal kingdom. In late summer, we see already that the fur coat of the animals becomes stronger; it grows and thickens. God, the eternal life, also equips the animals for the cold season in another way. Many animals gather the fruits of summer, in order to survive winter. They sense that a time of rest is now starting for them. In autumn, life stirs in various species of animals. The act of procreation in autumn brings forth life, their young, that is, animal babies, in the spring. When human beings do not harvest the last bit of grain from the fields and leave enough living space for the animals, they have enough food for the whole year. God sees to this.
In spring, the order of God starts in again, for example, the thick fur coat is gradually shed, and a summer coat develops. Let us think of the animals of the air, the animals in the waters, in and on the Earth, in the forests – everywhere, the order of God is found, as long as human beings do not interfere.

Often we hear: “Nature will take care of it!” This is correct. The forces of life in the nature of our Earth are connected to the great cosmic pulse-beat of the Being, which maintains, vivifies and causes all things to grow and ripen together in harmony. These are the forces of the eternal Creator-Spirit, which bring forth all forms of life and fill the great unity with life, which corresponds to His order, His will, His wisdom, His harmony. Should there be only one thing that the almighty and omnipresent All-Spirit, God, cannot achieve or cannot manage – like regulating the animal population?
Let us not forget: God gave Mother Earth not only to human beings, but also to the animals, the plants; everything that the Earth bears should live together in unity and peace. That is the law of God. However, man not only drives animals into confinement and kills them – he even places himself above God, by believing he must establish a balance in nature, that is, take over regulating the animal population.
Presumptuous and arrogant is the person who does not hesitate to intervene in God’s finely balanced Creation and who even brazenly acts the Creator. It is an outrageous game with the energy of life, which comes solely from God, an intervention in His harmonious order, which man could never conceive of or create.
Man, the savage on God’s Earth, is responsible for the unsustainable conditions on our planet, which are presently escalating and heading toward a disastrous and global point of tipping the scales.
The cause for this calamitous development lies in the Fall-thought, in the “I want – for me!,” in egoism, in mankind’s turning away from unity and in the ruthlessness that stems from being “against one’s neighbor” and “against our second neighbors.”
The law of God is giving love, absolute constructive power. And so, life is giving. Giving makes one free. Giving leads to inner wealth, to fullness; for the one who gives from his heart will also receive.
Unfortunately, human beings, true to the Fall-thought, are oriented toward taking. Taking, a person’s wanting to have for himself alone, is destructive and ultimately results in poverty.
“Modern” agriculture hardly leaves a single grain for the animal world. The farmers’ machines can be compared to gigantic sweepers. When harvest time comes, these machines suck up every ear, every little kernel of grain from the field. The farmer practically begrudges the animals the last grain. When the animals take from a field what they are entitled to – because God cares for everyone and everything – then the call goes out for the animal-killer, the hunter, who should shoot them down. The hunters fulfill the farmer’s wish, on the one hand, because of the “damage” which an animal – as the farmer believes – does to his field, because it takes what it needs in order to somehow survive winter; and on the other hand, because many a hunter has a lust to kill. Besides, an animal that has been shot is a gain for the hunter as well as for the butcher who buys it. The Judas-money flows into the “hunting penny,” which the hunter has to pay to the landowner for his hunting lease, and the butcher makes his profit on the slaughtered animal, whose body he cuts up and whose meat he sells to the consumer, who consumes the broiled or roasted and seasoned meat with great relish. For an innocent animal, which is hunted, chased, murdered and disemboweled, the inedible parts thrown away, the edible parts sawed up and prepared for the consumer, which the animal-cannibal then consumes, this is a path of unspeakable suffering.
Each day, human beings steal unimaginably large tracts, many hectares of living space, from the animals. God has taken care of the whole Earth. He is the scale in everything. Because human beings take living space away from the animals, God will not reduce the population of animals. They belong to the balance of unity, which is always in balance. When people reduce the animal’s living space, then the same number of animals have to live there, forced into greater population density. Then we hear: Overpopulation! And so, people then intervene and kill.
Recently we heard on the German radio station, B5 Aktuell: “Nature protectors are talking about how land is being eaten up by spreading industrial areas, traffic projects and the construction of ever larger homes.” And: “Every minute 200 square meters are built upon in Bavaria.” Here, animal protectors are giving proof of the land theft that is forcing animals into nature ghettos. The hunter’s excuse then is: “We have too many animals; we have to act against overpopulation. One has to practice conservation at certain times”– which means nothing more than to take the life from some of the animals.
It is human beings who artificially breed animals in the barns of factory farming, so that the consumer – again, human beings – has meat, meat, meat. Human beings are the ones who cut down the forests, poison the fields and kill the tiny living beings and micro-organisms. The human being is the author of all evil, under which he himself at some point will come to ruin. The warring Fall-fellow, the human being, is the one who disturbs and destroys everything, who brings unspeakable suffering upon himself, but also upon innocent creatures, the animals.
Human beings slander and discriminate against their fellow men. Human beings lie. Human beings subjugate and cheat their fellow man. Human beings torture and murder the animals. Human beings, animal-cannibals, consume their little brothers and sisters, the animals. Human beings interfere in forests and fields, cut down trees when they are in full sap and spread poisons on the fields, on the heads of the tiny living beings and micro-organisms. In war he goes against his brothers and sisters, practicing fratricide and claiming he is the crown of creation.

Many of these wrongdoers, who think they are the crown of creation, call themselves Christian. The so-called Christians are usually church-Christians. Through this, they are part of the clan of the Fall, which thinks solely of destroying everything that the order of God consists of. The human being, egotistical executive assistant to those who conduct the Fall, intervenes in everything, in order to bring it all to ruin and decline. His role models are the church institutions, which for 2000 years have been up to their tricks, always focused on discriminating against everything, spreading lies, eliminating and destroying everything that is not part of their sphere of interest.

The animal: a wonderful creature from the hand of God ... Learn to understand the animals

Every animal is in itself a wonderful creature from the hand of God – given by God so that we human beings may find our way back into unity, which is the law of life.
The behavior of animals will correspond to what the hunters pass on as their expert opinion, or even their “hunter’s jargon,” only for as long as animals are hunted, chased, fattened, shot down, butchered as slaughter animals in brutal ways and then placed before you, dear consumer, packaged and ready to be devoured.

One has to learn to understand the animals. It is only then that one really gets to know himself as a creature of God. Every species of animal has a state of development that I would like to call its state of consciousness. Every state of development, or, state of consciousness, has its corresponding language of nature, so to speak.
There are very many different degrees of consciousness among the animals. For instance, the animals of the air have a totally different state of consciousness than the animals in the waters. The animals in the waters, in turn, have a totally different state of consciousness than the animals in the forest, on and in the fields, or than the animals of the desert, or of the jungle. And yet, they understand each other because their sounds and tones are reflexes of pictures which open up in the consciousness of the other animals. These see and smell the pictures in themselves. This pictorial transmission of the substance of consciousness is a spiritual process and thus, independent of spatial distances.
A human being can perceive the language of the animals solely with his heart – not with his physical heart, but with the heart of the soul, with the primordial basis of all Being, with the Creator power which we also call the core of being. The language of the heart of the soul is the language of unity.
Animals are not Fall-beings like humans are. They react according to their state of consciousness, unless humans interfere in their life, which happens quite often. Through this, animals do not exactly have a harmonious relationship with human beings. For example, the forest animals take flight when they see humans. The fear of people makes them, in part, aggressive. Animals see in humans their enemy, the hunter, who brings nothing but death to them.

Dear friends, in this letter I would like to report some experiences, which have caused my heart to beat ever more joyfully, because the creatures of life are wonderful beings. The animals have a very special ethic and moral for themselves and their species. Every person could really learn from the animals, if he only wanted to!
For almost three years now, I have been going into the woods several times a week – and not just to have a nice walk, but to experience the animals and study those that have their own language. During this time, I have experienced an inner greatness and charm in the animals that often is lacking in human beings. The animals have a very noble and fine character; it corresponds to their respective state of consciousness. One has to learn to understand and get to know them. One cannot force them into something; one has to develop trust with them and above all, one has to let them be free.

The home of the forest animals is the woods and the fields. First of all, this has to be respected, and secondly, their freedom, because they not only feel themselves as free creatures – they are this way in their whole behavior. The human being should be a friend of the animals, their big brother or big sister. He, the human, has become, instead, the enemy of the animals. The animals have lost their trust in humans. They are filled with fear and take flight when they see a two-legged creature.
So the friendship between human and animals has to be fought for, with a great deal of persistence, love and understanding, well, with the heart. How did “The Little Prince” express it? “It is only with the heart that one can see clearly.” In the woods with the animals, I have learned among other things that you can hear and feel clearly only with the heart.
When I go into the woods, it is as if I were meeting up with old friends that I have known from the very primordial beginnings of creation. The forest with its trees and bushes, the fields with their grasses and flowers and the whole world of animals has become my home.

Experiencing the unity of life in nature – The experience of “me” in “we.” The ”language” of nature: A process of pictorial transmissions

Wherever my friends are, the animals who carry no malice in their hearts, wherever nature speaks to me, wherever the elements sound out their melodies, there, I am at home.
The unending Spirit showed and shows me in wonderful ways that He, the All-Spirit, is the Creator of all Being and the effective power in the great and unending multiplicity of forms, the unity of life. Even the elementary forces bear the life force of the All-One. The air sings its song in the movement of the leaves, the twigs and branches of the trees; it sings its song through the movement of the bushes and grasses. The sun makes the leaves and flowers sparkle, and they announce the breath of light and radiate the song of the sun.
The water drop has its own particular melody. It begins with “drip, drip...” – and then it sounds out with its crystal clear, bright song, which nature in its totality thankfully perceives. The Earth opens its pores, and the crystalline sparkle sinks down into it very gently and quietly. The song of the waters sounds out then, through the Earth and through nature, in honor of the Creator. It blossoms. It grows. It ripens.
The elements and nature give themselves into the fruits, which sing all the nature songs by giving themselves to human beings and to animals. The songs of the elements, of the trees, the bushes, flowers and grasses build, as a unit, the mighty symphony of unity, which is revealed in the fruits. It is only with the heart that one can hear clearly.
As a being in God, I love my eternal homeland. As a human being in the Spirit of unity, I love my home on Earth, where I feel at home. It is the forests and fields, the Mother Earth, which bears all forms of life. Love without selfishness is freedom. True love links; true love makes one free and also leaves freedom to every form of life. Every animal, every flower and every bush has the right to free development, just as God meant for His creation.

Through my personal experience with the world of animals in the woods and fields, I had to unfortunately realize that there is still a long way to go until humans and animals become friends again. Actually it should make us human beings sad that an animal is frightened and flees in fear as soon as it sees us. A person who wants to grow closer to the animals in the woods and fields has to dedicate himself totally and completely to them. One has to learn to understand their fears, their suffering and pain, but also their joy and their urge for freedom. Every stirring of an animal – whether it is fearful, suffering or has pain, whether it is signaling joy or freedom – shows itself in a corresponding form of expression. One must open oneself for them, totally turning to them, feeling into them; one must learn, learn and learn again, in order to understand their behavior patterns, which are reflected in their conduct.
The first steps in the woods toward my friends were marked by my personal intention to maintain an inner and external discipline, to make no demands and to have no expectations. I made the effort to behave in such a way as fit with my intentions: to go into the woods as a friend of nature and of the animals. What I first encountered were my brothers, the trees, my nature brothers and sisters, including the bushes, the grasses and flowers.
I began to observe everything very exactingly in order to learn, because my first concern was to understand their language, the elemental song of unity, which flows from nature. I watched and listened with my heart.
