Human being or soul
Master Zelanus explains in his book ‘Spiritual Gifts’ that the questions about justice can only be answered if people consider several lives:
Anyone who senses and completely understands what I have now told you will know the explanation for the many apparent injustices that the world shows.
Spiritual Gifts, 1943
In addition, why does one person receive wealth and health and the other poverty and illness as his lot?
You just do not know what to do with these questions, which are great problems for numerous people on earth, if you accept that you only receive one life, as your churches and science keep on claiming.
If you can accept that the soul has to experience an evolution in order to experience all these material grades, you will see that there is no question of divine injustice.
If you think for a moment, it must be clear to you that God, as a Father of love, cannot treat His children unjustly!
He cannot give one child everything and let the other perish in misery.
Spiritual Gifts, 1943
What therefore appears to be injustice, in fact means evolution.
In order to be able to return to God as conscious souls, we must experience all the grades He created.
That height cannot be reached in one life; many are needed for this.
Spiritual Gifts, 1943
Cause and effect
We affected the justice ourselves in our past lives:
We now establish which qualities, as fundamental possession, belong to the human being.
Do you see?
And then that core comes forward, so that you will know at the end of this morning why you actually live.
Now ask the academic in your society: “What do you live for, sir?
Theologian, what do you live for?
Why are you here on earth?
Why does that child still live there in the jungle?
Why do you have castles and palaces there?
And why is there deformation there?
Why are there illnesses there, is there misery there?
Why does one human being have everything?
Why was a Rembrandt born, a Titiaan, a Van Dyck, a Beethoven?
Why did those children have everything and why can the other child of this time and past times not reach that?”
Do you see?
“Why does one human being have inspiration, why does the one human being have the knowledge and the other has been struck deaf and dumb, comes back to earth as a deaf and dumb person, is blind, is lifeless?
Do you see?
Can God approve of that?”
We can now explain to you that it is you yourself, but you are not yet that far.
The laws of God can now explain that you once before sullied that Divine justice and you have to accept that.
We knew millions of lives and there the human being started to demand.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
At soul level, the concept of ‘child’ disappears because every soul has experienced millions of lives:
Now you come to yourself, you are mother or father.
You are a child?
You do not need to speak about the child, because we know: these are only births, millions of lives live in that child.
When the child becomes older and becomes a mother, that creation is already present.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
When the human being can accept that he has caused karma, that is a first step.
However, the spatial justice exists in that every soul receives the possibility to dissolve the karma by giving back the lifetime to the life from whom the material lifetime was taken away as a result of a murder:
The human being says: “And now I will bow and then I will have made it, won’t I?”
Yes, then you lay the first foundation.
Then you lay the first foundation, even if you break your precious inner neck every day, you get up again anyway – don’t you? – because you cannot destroy yourself; God is that just.
Even if you shoot down thousands of people there – we know for that matter, we got to know those laws, we started ourselves with making good – you must return to the earth in order to give all those thousands of people of another people a new body.
You will make good again and now this is the Divine, spatial justice.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
The divine justice has nothing to do with punishing:
The Divine justice is gone in society for this mankind.
There has been talking for two thousand years and when the clergyman, your minister, is faced with justice and he says: “And God is just and will punish those and those people”, then he stumbles over the Divine law of justice, because God does not punish – do you see? – and he can begin again.
He must first get to know the God of all life and He is – we experienced that and you can accept that – He is light, life, love!
Lectures Part 2, 1951
How just are we already?
The divine justice was indeed thought about but still not felt:
“The justice of God”, Master Alcar could have said to Jeus, but that child could not yet deal with that, “is like a philosophical system which is experienced by Socrates and Plato and now by your own universities, but is not felt.”
The human being speaks about justice, the human being wants to serve justice and to sell it in the first place for your society.
We will therefore soon come to society and then you can wonder: “What did we receive in possession for millions of things, qualities, for justice?”
We lay a foundation for that universal justice.
We enter the human justice of course for thousands of thoughts, for the bible, for a university, for your talking, your thinking, your eating, your drinking, your fatherhood, your motherhood.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
What did we as human beings make of it?
And then we can keep on asking: what did we master of it?
Lectures Part 2, 1951
Are we honest in our actions?
If you remember this when you work, keep this feeling with you when you work; it does not matter what you do, what you serve for, you must all eat, drink, but in justice.
Is it not true, when you speak to those people and you give your price honestly and virtuously – this is an inferior feeling from the heavens, an analysis, but it belongs to your society and your life – and you give justice in your business, in your task, in what you want to sell, then you can return, or otherwise that door there will be closed.
Justice is the most wonderful foundation for your soul, spirit, your society, personality.
That justice lives in the human being, because you have the life.
Through justice you get the head bowing, the understanding, the accepting, the speaking, the analyzing of the things.
But you do not close yourself off if you are not proved right and the other human being can say: “You are untrue!”
Because do you know what your life, your personality will be like ‘beyond the coffin’?
And if you do not want to give the human being, you do not want to give the life, you do not want to give Christ, you do not want to give the soul, your spirit, your fatherhood and motherhood any justice, do you know what your sphere will be like then?
Lectures Part 2, 1951
Do we live at the expense of another?
Do you not realize, the human being says on earth: “I will do everything for my children, I will do everything for that life”?
But what must your children then do?
When you experience the spiritual, the Divine justice, then the law of justice says: that child must just prove what it wants.
How is the possession of society now used up?
I will also come across that soon, that will soon stand before us.
What does the possession now serve for?
In order to give the life that and that and that, in order to destroy it, in order to make the life easy?
You must bring yourself to growth.
What do you do?
Do you live on another?
Do you let another work for yourself?
What do you do yourself?
There are people, lives pass, father and mother have everything, the children have been completely spoiled physically, spiritually, by all of that.
You become harsh of your own accord; no, strict, because you see that the life which does not inspire himself, is standing still.
You will never make it if you do not start to serve, if you do not emit that science.
“I miss the space, I miss my good book”, and they are too lazy; too unconscious to absorb it into them.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
Society still does not build on the spheres of light in the hereafter:
Then you can immediately say: the whole of that society in which you live is a chaos, is nothing but injustice, there is nothing that possesses foundation, by means of which this society continues to build for the life ‘beyond the coffin’; that is not there, I will prove that to you.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
We will have to build up the justice for our own inner life ourselves:
But what is now actually justice with regard to your inner life, the astral world and the space which the human being must conquer?
Lectures Part 2, 1951
Our inner life possesses grades of feeling:
And that life possesses grades for the own obtained consciousness.
That is of course and obviously the life of feeling, the life ‘beyond the coffin’, it is also and above all harmony and then justice follows again.
I continued precisely in order to analyze that justice because you no longer know any justice here in this life.
That means that mankind has not yet reached the spiritual justice, and you must master that anyway.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
In order to rise in grade of feeling, we can ask ourselves when we are true and just in our feeling, our thinking and our actions:
Do you wish for happiness in everything, in your silence, by means of your thinking, your inner feeling?
Then try to justly accept, to feel, to experience and to gauge the human being with whom you are involved.
Rid yourself of that darkness in you, of that snappy, that harsh, that snarly, because that is not a feeling of justice, that is not harmony, that cannot be love, you are restraining your awakening.
Be sweet, be true in everything, finally begin to lay those foundations and I assure you: millions ‘beyond the coffin’ will come to you, in order to elevate your life, in order to inspire your life and to give you that happiness, because you serve.
And when you serve, then the heavens will be open to you and then for the first time – believe it – the University of Christ speaks as a law of justice for all your thousands and thousands of character traits which are part of your human personality, which you are as father and mother.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
Jozef Rulof (André) treated every human being justly:
We must now begin to lay foundations for the everyday self in which and for which you live.
Accept every word which must and will be justice.
Begin to want nothing else than to see life justly.
To see justly!
If you come to André’s house and even if you have been in prison, even if the whole of society keep on at you, you walk with lies and deception, you stand in your own muck and mud, then he will say: “To me you are beautiful, nice and wonderful”, do you see?
He always sees one perfection, the human being is completely perfect to him, inwardly and outwardly.
That human being has no lies and no deception, that human being is in harmony, that human being is just to his life.
And if you come to him unjustly, not benevolently and he starts to see it, then his personality will ... we also do that, then we go away.
Then we go backwards: you just pass, just carry on.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
Divine justice
How can God approve of that?
One has everything, the other life has nothing.
How can that be?
You hear millions of prayers and questions which the people ask themselves: ‘How can God approve of that?
Lectures Part 2, 1951
How can that God be just?
Because you certainly feel it, one human being gets everything from that just God and another is broken alive and conscious, murdered.
The stake is no longer there, but when you look back at other peoples, then you see trouble, misery, whipping, contamination, diseases.
And can a God who is just give that to the human being and can He represent that?
That is not possible!
We already get to see that the human being has laid foundations for himself for a justice which he possesses and means nothing for your soul, for your spirit, for your astral life, for the space.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
So we will now begin with the philosophical systems.
We want to know: what is justice?
How can God approve that one child is murdered there and the other gets a crown on his head, on the own self?
How can He strike the human being by means of disease and leprosy, plague and cholera?
Lectures Part 2, 1951
In his lectures, master Zelanus discusses the journeys through the universe that he made with master Alcar and with André in order to get to know God and all the life:
I promised you that we would soon – I just said it again – return from the universe and would slightly analyze the philosophical systems for the human being, for soul, spirit, personality, society, astral world.
Since we made a journey through the universe and got to know God as light, life, father and mother, we reach the Divine justice of its own accord.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
The divine justice consists of God having given every spark of life his divine personality:
But where do those Divine foundations live which represent the justice of God?
Because through this you can learn: that flower possesses the Divine spatial justice, because that child has life; you have too.
An animal also has justice, we will see that soon, but we will first look into the space.
We must return, we return to the space, to the moon, to sun, stars and planets, because they received their Divine justice.
And now everything in God has light, life, love, but God gave life to every cell, to every spark.
And that spark ...
You leave that light and that life, and that soul and that spirit, and that fatherhood and motherhood, we just leave that there in that world where it is.
We are only talking about the Divine justice, but you think about that too, because we experienced those spaces for that purpose.
We went to stars and planets, we entered the astral world, we entered the world for your spirit, ‘beyond the coffin’.
We came onto the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, the seventh cosmic grade.
We entered the Divine All, came back and went on to the All-Mother in the invisible, when the God of all life was still to begin.
We experienced that darkness there again.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
Since God divided himself in the infinite in that space, He divided himself by means of myriad parts, each life, each spark at a macrocosmic attunement got the own personality in its hands.
And that was now and that is now the justice of God.
Now God has nothing more to give.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
The All-Soul as All-Mother gave all the life her justice:
The All-Mother gave herself, the All-Source built on one grade of feeling and that was: my life will fill this space, the macrocosmos will continue, spiritualize and materialize that multiplication, and then all the life possesses the justice of myself.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
God gave the space to all the life for giving birth and creation:
What you must now start to sense and will have to understand is, that God gave the space for giving birth and creation to the life and the Divine justice now lies there.
There is nothing else to experience.
You have that Divine justice, because you possess the life.
Lectures Part 2, 1951
As a result of the possibility of reincarnation, the divine justice can be seen for all the life:
By means of that cosmic Divine justice you have kept receiving body after body again.
And that became the reincarnation, that is reincarnation, that continues infallibly, nothing can be destroyed about that.
There is no more.
The Divine justice lives and can be seen in there.
