How would you define magic or the deeper meaning of life? The aim that is important for the spiritual maturity of mankind?

In my opinion magic is the attempt to break through the borders with which our collectively integrated vision of the world has burdened us. The deeper meaning in life is to analyze the preconditions for the force that constrains us to constantly remain captured within the borders of our consciousness. In a word: The main concern is to overcome reality in order to, at least, loosen the blinkers that demarcate the perspective through which we see the reality we have been „fed“.

To overcome reality? What does „reality“mean seen from a magical point of view?

Reality is a double-edged sword: On the one hand it is a necessary tool that, more or less, preserves a harmonic interaction between human beings, on the other it is a kind of prison, in which we hold ourselves captive reciprocatively. We created this prison by ourselves, in a sense, in order to set up the conditions for a system in which we can communicate and simultaneously protect ourselves from our fears and the irritations of our subconsciousness. One could also say: Reality is the first layer of a black forest cake, which we are going to talk about later, that contains the social inventory of our civilization. It is only a thin sugar-coating on the pyramid of human evolution, and without it, the instinctive nature of mankind would be brought back to light, anarchy or the privilege of the stronger, as is exemplified in the total breakdown of order when cities that are haunted by natural disasters like earthquakes or floods – portraying the fundament of the human construction plan.

So it is that what protects human society that simultaneously prevents the development of the individual?

Evolution is an instrument of general balance without mercy and doesn’t purchase the spiritual goal of the enlightened, but always the most direct solution for the development of everything in the plan of nature. For this reason one should not observe reality from the perspective of the individual, but from nations and races in their entirety.

And who is the creator of this reality?

We are, but, well, unaware of it! We have constructed our material conditions under the influence of our sensory perception preconditioning the frame of the image in which the outside world is illustrated – this is an ancient act of balance and development that continues endlessly. If we look at it the other way around it is also the self-made structure of the outside that influences our sensory perception – we recognize it inside our own graven images, that suddenly usurp a collective energy field and can be used by the old bondholders of power as well as the new rulers.

You mean the act of creating our reality was – so to speak – the forbearer of human magic?

Yes. Our ego is the materialization of what we think ourselves to be and reality is – if not the creation communal – then at least the collective preservation of a traditional culture, that we constantly assimilate to the spirit of time. We are not the makers of the universe, but we all are the creators of our own, personal world, that is inseparably connected to the collective world in the shape as was spoon-fed into our minds.

Is it not possible to escape this dual reality?

More or less, yes, for nothing that we do is carved in stone – procedures change constantly and yet again every change influences the specific action. Admittedly, there are very few that catch the train, because they don’t know where they should escape to – because they tied themselves to this reality for a lifetime and made it the foundation of their whole existence. They are going in circles, because they have not learned at which point to jump of the carrousel. The spiritually experimentative person can flee it though, if he learns to silence the inner dialogue by consciously emptying his mind, cut off the stream of thoughts, which forces him to perpetually perceive the world in the shape of the structures that were pressed into his consciousness – at least for the period of time he is in a condition of silent thoughts or inhabits other spheres of consciousness.

According to that, reality cannot be objective?

Reality is the most objective dimension of thought we are able to construct after our image. The growing person that observes the world through his not yet developed and educated senses quickly learns to assimilate the collective images of his ancestors in a way that he can draw from them the optimal number of advantages for his life.

If I understand you correctly the general doings of humanity are reduced to simply administrating their only reality imparted through education?

They are not only administrating it, they are also developing it, at least as far as the conditions of their feigned structures allow them to do so. Although the normal human being has very little possibilities to influence these collective mechanisms individually, because those collective streams are accompanied with such an intensive collective force that the pressure of its flood always pushes away everything that holds against it.

But what drives us? What is trying to reach itself within us, so our fate can fulfil itself?

At first sight it is our superstitious ambitions that urge us – but behind that there is a silent force that is always desirous to balance the inner disharmony that indwells us. It originates in our social models and familial structures that coined us in our childhood. We are not free at heart – all the aims we pursue in the outside world are a never-ending attempt to compensate the inner deficit through a specific action in the material world. But we have the chance to grow if we bravely move forward and realise the greater connections, shoulder responsibility, and know that the things we do are not always good, but the best possible seen from the individual point of view.

What about our social ambitions? Are they wrong?

They are only wrong when we believe that they are right. Our social values mirror the game humanity plays and the fact that it invents certain rules in order to have something that they can occupy themselves with while living. Common morals are nothing but a collective self-occupation-therapy, so that human beings can perform their anarchistic nature on a controlled stage.

Why then all this stress, all this war and anxiety in the world?

Because our view is so narrow and dual. No one goes to war just fore the sake of war, no, we fight against each other, because the other one is always wrong and one is anxious to persuade the other one of the own justified demands. If it is necessary to enforce ones postulations, one has to use war, which of course never results from the own injustice, but from the unapologetic attitude of the other. The universal frequency is an impersonal force, neither good nor bad. Only the mechanisms of our consciousness paint them „black“ or „white“. The differentiation happens consequently in our central nervous system, in our thoughts. The former, negative descriptions of destructive forces mirror nothing else but the own, subconscious demons of mankind. The world is a mirror, in whose reflection we see the image of the others overlapped by our own demons, for which we are blind to recognize them ourselves.

Blind? But evil exists in this world – does it not?

Yes, but only because we do not know the deeper coherences of evil. Evil is mostly being constructed by numerous negative experiences, which in turn feed on personal disappointments. These disappointments result from negative experiences, from which we perceive only the mistakes of the others – not our own expectations.

Do you mean we can only see errors within the others?

Generally we do, yes.

That doesn’t sound very comforting! Where could be the solution?

We may not expect any solution to come from the outside, but we have to find it within ourselves. It is always most important to create ones own point of reference regardless of ones position, which is giving us the possibility to watch our actions from the outside point. Then we will realize very soon that a solution is not necessarily needed.

Why don’t we need a solution?

Because we are always a part of the solution! The problem is only the shadow of the resulting realization: We always see from our own perspective, the point from which we create our problems ourselves, because seen through the eyes of eternity our problems do not even exist ...

... and where does the problem exist then?

Nowhere. Every mistake is nothing but the retrospective of a realization, and the sense of all this lies within the strength not to root oneself to the position of the mistake. In other words: Mistakes are only the nebulosity of material systems, that wouldn’t exist without points of reference. Seen from a spiritual point of view they are nothing but a direction sign to realizations, helping us to perceive the operating forces of evolution, that normally are not perceptible through material thinking.

You think that injustice will remain in this world as long as we are only able to see it in others and never within ourselves?

Yes. Only the one who knows his own shadow, knows who he really is. And only the one who knows himself can conceive what it means to evolve from within oneself. For we do not only walk the tight-rope over the abyss, we are also the crocodiles lingering in the bleary waters who eat the ones who lost their balance. At least until we recognize the fact that the sinners are one part of ourselves and the crocodiles resemble the other part of the same existence.

But what about world piece?

The quest for paradise must remain an unfulfilled longing otherwise the human race has no ambition for development.

What ...? Why can’t the human race develop in piece and harmony?

A static paradise doesn’t offer enough foundations for the human ego to evolve, and therefore peace is never possible. Humanity needs war with the prospect of piece or perpetual crisis that includes the hope for paradise, which of course may not fulfil itself, so that it can serve as fundamental motivation for development.

Well I don’t know ... this sounds really brutal. Somehow I miss the term “Freedom”? What about our own, free will?

We have the freedom to do exactly that what vibrates within the collective frequency of the actual collective energy field of time, in a manner of speaking to implement a socially imprinted image of freedom within contracted, personal possibilities. It is always about “doing what has to be done”, like even Goethe knew already before our time. If we fulfil this aspiration, we perceive what leads to a conceived image of freedom.

Where does the final destination beyond our social and material aims lie?

Our origins lie within the spirit of the universe, within the unknown, and we came here to evolve – to learn about the laws of change within matter – This is about learning in what way we influence our world – To create the conditions under which we can change our reality, so we can understand the way our intellect is working. Only then can we realize that we are the ones who have to change if we want to improve the world.
