Abd-ru-shin’s work “In the Light of Truth” – The Grail Message – conveys to the reader an insight into the working of the Laws of Nature and of Creation. In a comprehensible manner the author describes the working of the different Laws which are interwoven right up to the finest ramifications. As an example, the effect of a grain of corn bringing forth a multiple harvest of corn follows a pattern according to the laws. However, this principle of nature is not restricted to the world of plants alone, but the lawful effects also return to the human being as a consequence of the thoughts and deeds generated by him. Man harvests many times over from the seed which arises from his volition, and such a harvest can then bring him joy or sorrow. In this regard however, the thought that the personality of a human being is restricted to only a single earth life must however, be broadened, for the human being is a wanderer who has lived on this planet earth in several embodiments as a human being. Thus, what happened on this earth in the dim and distant past was the work of present day human beings, for we were also involved in these epochs in earlier incarnations.

The themes Abd-ru-shin illuminates in His Work encompass the meaning of life and the task humanity on earth has to fulfil. Furthermore, the difference in the nature of man and woman is explained, in which particularly everything womanly finds expression in a manner which is finer and striving towards the Light.

If he follows the descriptions of Abd-ru-shin with an open mind, the reader arrives at a basis for the ability to perceive that which the different cultures on this earth call “God”. God, as the Creator of all things, in His Creation becomes truly perceptible only to those human beings who adapt themselves unconditionally to this Creation and the Laws active therein. In this connection, there can be no separation between belief and science for both have the same origin and require an objective examination which can only take place free from any sort of restraints in order to grasp them.

The Ten Commandments of God https://grailmovement.ng/product/the-ten-commandments-of-god/ Thu, 09 Jul 2020 00:04:00 +0000 http://grailmovement.ng/?post_type=product&p=160 The Ten Commandments of God and The Lord's Prayer - Explained to Mankind by Abd-ru-shin.

The book “The Ten Commandments of God and The Lord’s Prayer – Explained to Mankind by Abd-ru-shin” was published for the first time in Autumn 1929. With his explanations based on the knowledge about the workings of the laws of creation – such as mediated by him in the Grail Message – Abd-ru-shin opens for humanity of the present time a new access to the understanding of these ancient writings, which in religious thought even today are still bestowed a deep significance. The attentive reader will recognise the concrete and immeasurable help these texts hold for him, provided that he makes the effort to recognise the intention for which they were given to mankind.

Abd-ru-shin writes with regard to the “Ten Commandments”:

“Who takes the trouble to experience a Commandment thoroughly with his intuition. When one sees how thoughtlessly children and adults habitually treat the Commandments of their God, every serious-minded person could and should be horrified.

The Commandments are learned and superficially discussed at school. A person is happy if he has taken in the words, and can to some extent give answers concerning them, so long as there is any danger of his being questioned about them. When he leaves school to enter public life these words too are soon forgotten, and with them also the meaning. The best proof of the fact that he was not really interested at all in what his Lord and God demands of him.

But He does not even demand anything, but gives in love to all men what they really need! From the Light it was indeed perceived how far human beings were going astray. So, like a teacher, God faithfully showed them the way that leads them to Eternal Life in the Luminous Realm of the Spirit, thus to their happiness. Whereas disobedience must lead to misery and ruin for mankind!

Just for that reason it is not really correct to speak of Commandments. Rather they are very well-meant advice, pointing out the right way through the World of Matter, with which the human spirits themselves wished to become acquainted.

(from the chapter : “The Third Commandment”)

“You see that all the Commandments are only the best friends for men, to protect them faithfully from evil and from suffering! Therefore love them and respect them as a treasure, the guarding of which brings you only joy! –”

(from the chapter : “The Fifth Commandment”)

This book contains a collection of articles on various topics written by Abd-ru-shin during the years 1924 to 1937 as answers to questions which readers of his work “In the Light of Truth” had asked him.

Preface by the author:

“I often receive letters of genuine gratitude, which arouse great joy in me. The earnestly seeking one, however, who through the lectures has become a finding one, can express his thanks for that only to God himself. Although I have been able to become the mediator, the gift is not from me. I am nothing without God, and could give nothing without him.

As an example I would just like to cite the following: When a gift is brought to a man by a servant, he does not thank the servant, but the giver himself. It is no different here. If I am permitted to draw from sources which are closed to others, then surely I myself have the greatest cause for thanking him who grants me this!”

Extract from “Questions and Answers”:

QUESTION: What is mercy and how is it related to justice?

ANSWER: In the human sense mercy is an arbitrary act, but not in the divine sense. God’s mercy lies in the self-acting laws of creation that bear the will of God, which at the same time is also justice. In their justice they give the fallen human spirits the possibility of achieving ascent again through redemption.

These effects of the self-acting laws of God in Creation bear within them justice and love, and at the same time are also the mercy that God offers to human beings.

Prayers https://grailmovement.ng/product/prayers/ Thu, 09 Jul 2020 00:02:19 +0000 http://grailmovement.ng/?post_type=product&p=162 The book "PRAYERS" contains a collection of prayers as given to humanity by Abd-ru-shin.

The book “PRAYERS” contains a collection of prayers as given to humanity by Abd-ru-shin. In addition, there has been reproduced in this book Abd-ru-shin’s answer to a question, as well as four lectures from the work “IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH”, which are closely connected to prayer. This new selection should give encouragement to the interested reader to look especially into the meaning of prayer as seen from the perspective of the Grail Message.

Abd-ru-shin writes with regard to prayer:

“If prayer is to be spoken of at all, then the following words are naturally meant only for those who concern themselves with prayer.

He who does not feel the inner urge to pray may well refrain from doing so, for his words or his thoughts would inevitably dissolve into nothingness. If a prayer is not thoroughly inwardly experienced, through and through, it has no value and therefore will have no effect.

The best foundation for a prayer which may be expected to have effect, lies in those moments of spontaneous thankfulness arising out of great happiness or of deepest pain resulting from heartfelt grief. In such moments a person is filled with one particular intuition which dominates all else within him. This enables the main wish of the prayer, be it gratitude or a request, to receive undimmed power.”

(from the lecture “Prayer”)

“Man should not forget that when praying he need only obtain the strength to enable him to bring into being himself what he is praying for!”

(from the lecture “The Lord’s Prayer”)
